Aloha Friends and Family! Welcome to the first digital newsletter of SY 2018-2019. We have a lot happening with the JR Marauders and I am so excited for what's to come. First off, I'd like to thank all the parents/guardians that took time out of their busy schedules to attend our fall meeting. A lot was discussed and I'll address some of it in this newsletter. The meeting was also an opportunity to re-establish the JR Marauders Band Boosters Association which I am happy to announce we have our officers. I'll let them introduce themselves in our next newsletter. The first official band boosters meeting is set for November 15, 2018 @ 6:00pm at the band room. If you are interested in becoming a member please feel free to contact us at [email protected]. Thank you so much for your continued support. I look forward to an amazing year!
