We are delighted to announce that the CHS Trojan Band is awaiting final approval to perform in the Hollywood Christmas Parade next November in Hollywood, California. While we are finishing up some final details with the parade committee and the staff involved we wanted to inform you all of what we know thus far for this trip.

Universal Studios

Admission into the Grammy Museum

San Diego Zoo

BBQ cookout at the beach

Marching in the Hollywood Christmas Parade (televised)

and more!

This is an incredible opportunity for the high school members which the 8th grade class of this year will be a part of next year! We want to go ahead and begin giving out information and taken in payments so that we can spread out the price as much as possible. It would be unrealistic for the freshman of next year to pay the entire trip in a few short months. Mr. Carr and Mr. Bright have asked me to inform you of the downpayment for the trip (to reserve the plane seats) and of our meeting at the high school band room on January the 9th that will go over the itinerary and cost layout for the trip.

 If you and your student are considering attending the trip next year (yes, we need chaperones) then we ask that you attend the meeting on January the 9th at 6:00pm. 

A $50 Non-refundable Deposit is due on January the 12th. Payment for the trip would be a great gift from loved ones during the holidays.

Get the lawn mowers ready and get ready to babysit 8th grade because you have the chance to travel across the country and make some unforgettable memories with your band family!

I will see you on the 9th!

(Don’t worry 7th grade, we have plans for you too in the next couple of years!)
