This past weekend was a HUGE success. We represented our school and community very well at Rutgers University's Band Day. I am so proud of our students. They were exemplary role models and had a great time. It is our hope that this experience will open their eyes to their future options after HS.

This week we will be preparing for our competitive debut at Appoquinimink HS. This is why we work so hard. This week's rehearsals are essential to a great debut performance. here is the rundown for the week...

Full Uniform
All Members will have their uniforms distributed to them after rehearsal this Tuesday. All members should take them home and try them on. Let Mr. Kershaw know about any issues.

2022 WDMB Tour Shirt Orders:  Orders for this year's "Drawn In" tour shirt will be taken through Tuesday, 9/27.  Order forms are in the front of the band room or click here: Tour Shirt Order Form

Football this week!  The WD football team is home against local rival Haddonfield this upcoming Friday.  Kickoff is 7pm. The WDMB will be performing their entire program at halftime. HELP NEEDED! =>  Our pit crew can use a few extra hands to help the band move on and off the field. Please consider helping us by coming out to the game. See John Phillips at the concession stand area.

Competition! OK, here we go!!!  First competition is this weekend!.  The show site is about a 60 minute drive from WDHS.  We know this show is a hike, but we hope to fill the stands with WDMB supporters!  We will be competing against 1 other Group II, Open Class band.  WD Performs at 7:30pm.  Be sure to come out and make some noise as we set into competition with a complete "Drawn In" performance.

Competition Tickets!  Tickets will be available (still waiting to receive them) Only adult tickets are available from Mr. Kershaw.  Students/Seniors tickets are available at the gate at the show.  Be sure to purchase your adult tickets from Mr. Kershaw.
