End-of-year Celebration

End-of-year Celebration @ Pietro's Pizza in Milwaukie from 4-6pm on Tuesday.  Pizza, soda and a handful of tokens provided for each student by our FOCB!!!  Our Goofy Awards and some recognition awards will also be handed out, so be there!!

Parade help needed this Saturday!

Support Cleveland Band students marching in the Starlight Parade on Saturday, June 3rd! Volunteers are needed both at CHS to help students get ready, and downtown to walk in the parade, provide water and other supports.

Downtown parade help - please try to wear "Kelly Green" shirts so we all match.

Starlight Parade Prep

Marching Shoes
It is required that every student have a pair of shoes that are entirely black.

No other colors can be on the shoe at all, including the trim, laces, soles, etc.

I would recommend a comfortable pair of shoes.  I know we found nice Nike shoes that were completely black when we shopped for our kids.  I do feel that shopping locally is the best plan, because the shoes can be tried on for fit.

There is also a marching shoe that you can purchase through THIS WEBSITE. (You will want to choose STYLE 407 BLACK)  

We do have some shoes in our inventory that are used, but still in decent shape to loan to students.  It would be best to have something in hand before Memorial Day weekend, if possible.

Required Marching Practices
Required Marching rehearsals after school: 5/31 & 6/2
