It’s time for uniform fittings!
ALL band members (new and returning) MUST be fitted!!
Please be sure your student is ON TIME for their fitting (please see schedule below).
If your child’s fitting is the 4:00-5:00 time slot during the week of pre band camp and they cannot make it, please email Christine Kells (Christine.Kells@cobbk12.org) and let her know so another fitting time can be arranged.
Please Help Fit Uniforms Help our marching band students look their best this season.
Please consider helping to fit students for their brand new band uniforms!
If you have any questions about fittings or the fitting schedule, please contact Christine Kells at Christine.Kells@cobbk12.org

Lifetouch -- Coordinate picture dates twice a year with our Lifetouch contact.
Not ready to step up? Be a shadow! We also have several committees that will need new chairs for the 22-23 school year that you can shadow this school year to learn the ropes!
Hospitality -- Coordinate food for receptions and special events throughout the school year.
Tuxedo/Concert Dresses -- Fit kids for their concert attire.
Flags Fundraiser -- Manage the flag fundraiser subscriptions and coordinate flag distribution for 5 patriotic holidays.
