We are so excited for this amazing opportunity for our organization. We will continue to benefit the Band, Cheer and JROTC programs at Oregon City High School. In 2008 Pete's was brought to reality by Michelle Rizzo and The Cruise to Historic Downtown Oregon City was founded in 2009 by Trick and Racy Car Club. This year we are honoring them both with founders awards & trophies in memory of Michelle and in appreciation of Trick & Racy.
OCHS Band Boosters & The Downtown Oregon City Association are excited to host the Annual Cruise to Downtown Oregon City.

Special Election Meeting:
Join us September 1st at 7PM on ZOOM.
See the September Agenda here: Click Here
We will be conducting an election for our 2 vacant positions, Treasurer and Secretary. Under normal circumstances this meeting would have taken place in person in May. Due to the ongoing COVID19 Pandemic we had originally chosen to hold this meeting in the Fall when health sanctions had lifted. Due to the fact that the COVID19 is still an ongoing health concern and sanctions from the governor are still in place at this time we will be conducting this meeting via Zoom.

FAQ
Instruments: Instrument checkout will take place August 20th at OCHS. If you are a returning musician, please note that you will need to be here during that time to check out a school instrument.
If you are using your own instrument, please double check that you have enough reeds, valve oil, cork grease, neck strap, and your instrument is working well. DO NOT WAIT UNTIL BAND CAMP! Get to a music store ASAP if you need supplies or repairs.
New members with the band will need to purchase an appropriate lyre and Flip Book for their instrument. This includes flute players. Please ask Mr. Henson if you need assistance finding the right lyre. Please bring to Band Camp.
All members are required to use a lyre and flip folder for marching band. We will be rehearsing music outside often, so lyres and flip folders are a necessity, not an option. Don’t wait until band camp to purchase one.
Uniforms: Our AWESOME uniform moms will measure students for uniforms during the first few days of band camp. All students will be measured during band camp for their uniform, shako, and shoes. New members will be fitted for marching shoes, and we will order the appropriate sizes during the first few days of band camp. Marching shoes are $36.00 and can be paid for using fundraised money.

Hello Band Families,
I hope you all had a wonderful summer and got to enjoy your Labor Day Weekend! I will continue the tradition of sending a weekly email out with important information for the bands throughout the school year. Info will also be posted to our band website. We have also set up a new Remind for this year.
I am looking forward to a fun and productive year of making music. Please make sure you have all marked your calendars for our Parent Meeting on Tuesday, September 18 at 6:30 pm in the auditorium. We will be discussing our marching band trips this year and going over general band information including uniforms, concert attire, and we will be answering your questions. We hope to see you there!

What to expect:
We will meet at OCHS the morning of the 19th and be driven by bus to the Teddy Bear Parade in Downtown OC. Saturday Meeting time to be announced. After the parade we will load the buses and travel to Newport where the kids can explore, get lunch (please send some lunch money with your child) and hang with their friends until we leave for our hotel in Waldport. Dinner and fun will be provided at the hotel. We will spend the night at the Waldport Alsea Resort. There is a heated pool.
The following morning we will load the buses & head to Florence where Dana's mom and her auxiliary group in Florence will be providing us with a breakfast before the parade and goody bags for the trip back home. After the parade a hot dog type lunch is provided. On the way home we also normally make a midway stop on the way home when kids can buy a snack, & use the facilities. THANKS Mrs. Henson!!! We love you!
