Magic of Music almost here!!
I am looking forward to sharing an evening of music, food, and fellowship at our annual fundraiser on March 24. The Sunday evening event, held this year at the beautiful Firehouse Arts Center, is going to be memorable and magical (pardon the pun).
On behalf of the band students, I thank you for your support in any way you can be a part of the evening. This is our biggest fundraiser and as the band approaches 300 members for next year our needs are growing. These needs won't be met without the critical support from the proceeds raised at Magic of Music. Hope to see you there!

OOOhhhhhh....Say can you see the Amador Band kids playing the National Anthem at the A's Game? YES YOU CAN!
 For the first time ever, the Amador Valley Marching Band will be playing the National Anthem at the A's v. Dodgers game on April 30th. 7:05 Game Start. Does your student want to play? Do you want to attend? Please download the form and return it to Mr. Grantham as soon as possible. Students and Chaperones must have a ticket to attend.
We will not be chartering buses. All students need to be a part of a carpool/chaperone arrangement. We have to be at the Coliseum around 4:15 to re-group for our sound check at 4:45pm. BART is a 20 min ride. There is a 3:43pm train that day arriving at the coliseum at 4:08pm. The students will need an additional $8 for the BART fee/roundtrip. Kids on BART will be grouped with a chaperone. We will also coordinate carpools. Parking is free that day... If you can help chaperone that day please let us know ASAP. Kristen Dean

MOM sponsorship and fundraining
Our Magic of Music sponsorship and fundraising campaign has a couple of new members. Cisco has joined as an Ensemble sponsor and Workday has matched the $250 contribution of an Amador band family to double their donation. As a result, the Amador family will receive two VIP tickets to the Magic of Music event for their gracious efforts.
We need your help in doing more of the same. Ask your employer to match your contribution of $250 or more and receive two VIP tickets to the Magic of Music event yourself. Or ask your employer to help our efforts as a Corporate Sponsor and receive logo branding on all marketing materials and recognition during the Magic of Music event.
