BRAVO! to DCS Advanced Band

Congratulations to the Advanced Band for their performance on Friday, May 8, at the Damascus Christian Band Festival held at Warner Pacific College.  There were six bands that performed. The DCS Advanced Band received the highest score of the six bands from the adjudicator. Without question the band had their best performance of the year.  The adjudicator Pat Vandehey, director of bands at George Fox University wrote "Very nice programing, well played! Thank you".  When he came up to clinic the band, he came over to me and said " what a wonderful surprise".  The score that we received was quite high and not far from qualifying for state competition.  That is a real compliment to the talents and efforts of the 26 students.
For those of you that were not able to be there to hear them, we will repeat the music, plus some more,  at the spring program on May 19.

Transportation to Warner Pacific College

If you are on the list of approved drivers for DCS, we need you.
At this time we have three drivers and need three more.
The details are, the students arrive at DCS at 7:20 AM and leave at 7:30 AM.  We need to be at Warner Pacific by 8:00 AM.  The band festival is over at 11:30 AM and the students then need to be transported back to DCS.  
We also need one car to take track team members to Portland Christian for the District Track Meet.  That Car will leave WPC at 10:00 after our performance.
Please email me if you will be able to help.
Thank you.
