SMOKY MOUNTAIN MUSIC FESTIVAL BAND TRIP!!!

We have announced to the band students of our Spring band trip to Gatlinburg, TN to perform in the Smoky Mountain Music Festival parade. It has been two years since we have traveled. Information has been handed out about the trip. Commitment forms are due Thursday, Oct. 15 so we can see if we have enough to do the trip. Approximate cost (based on 80 travelers) is $528 students/$542 adults. Obviously, if more go, then the cost would go down. We encourage our parents to go as well. We would love to present Jay County's musical ambassadors in the Great Smoky Mountains!
