Big Night - Bigger Weekend!

Tonight we celebrate coming together as a band at GattiTown Pizza. Beginning at 7pm, we will be getting ready for our first big competition at Boiling Springs High School on Saturday and the beginning of the core of our Marching Season!

Please make every effort to attend tonight as this is also a fundraiser for the band. We get 10% of the gross sales of the gate that we bring in, so eat and play ALOT. You can check out the website at http://www.gattitownsc.com or our flyer at http://www.mavband.com/gtfundraiser.html

Most  - and I mean MOST importantly, please come out and support the band in the competition on Saturday. Boiling Springs is not that far away, the competition is fun, we need your support and HELP as well. For information on the event, click HERE!

See you tonight!

Mavband News for Sept 5

First of all, "Happy Labor Day Weekend" to all! There are several important items that are included in this blog.


We have our first Booster Meeting this Thursday, September 10th at 7pm in the bandroom. Agenda items include a ratification vote for our new President and Vice President. This was necessary due to the vacancy of our Presidents' position. Please make every effort to attend as we also will be discussing TOB business as well.

TOB Needs..
We have needs for several items regarding our TOB.
  1. Tents ( If you have any "Tailgate Styled" Tents, please contact Jessica M.)
  2. Gators ( We need 2 more Gators or ATV's to pull pit etc. Contact Richard V.)
  3. Trailers ( We need at least 3 or 4 10' trailers to lend to bands for the day. Contact Richard V.)
  4. Volunteers (We need you to sign up to volunteer. Click Here! )
Nachos.. Please log onto our signup pages and choose the Nacho's Fundraiser date that is best for you. Remember you get $15 credited towards your fair share for participating in this event.

GattiTown FUNDraiser.. We are having our first of two GattiTown Fundraisers on Thursday, September 24 at 7pm. This is one of the easiest fundraisers that we do! All you have to do is to show up and eat! We receive 10% of the sales from our bands' entrance prices. This is a great time to join together as there is no game on Friday and our First Competition is Saturday at Boiling Springs. For more information, click on our website to view the flyer!

Photo's Galore.. We have 384 pictures of the first game already online. You can view them from our media page or click here to go directly to our Flickr page to see the pics. A HUGE thanks to Dan Haas and Scott Blackwell for their contribution. We should have every student covered. If you don't see your kid, it's because he didn't look at the camera! If you want a picture with your kid at anytime, let Dan or Scott know and they will make one for you.

That's all for now, we look forward to seeing you Thursday!
