Cambridge Orchestra: Day 1

I hope that you are as excited as I am. It is almost time to finally make some string music the Cambridge way. What is the Cambridge way? Well that will be up to you as we work together to make this program a great and significant one for the community and school.

For Monday:

1. Instruments: No instruments please. We will discuss the handbook, grading, calendar, uniforms, and new room.

2. Violin and Viola players: Please bring a spinning combination lock. We will not be using any locks that require a key.

3. Room: This is a no food, drink, gum, and candy room. You may bring bottled water to hydrate.

4. Attire: Spirit wear is recommended is you have some.

5. Pencils: Please bring pencils to write with. This will be a pen free environment.

6. Donations: If you would like to donate some Kleenex, rosin, cleaning cloths, or rock stops that would be wonderful. I will have a box for these donations.

7. Attitude: Yes we know that there are several schedule changes that need to be made and I am asking everyone to be open and patient to these changes. This is a new school and we are all here to help. Thanks in advance for your great energy!!!

Have a great weekend. I can't wait to see everyone on Monday!!!

Hello Cambridge Orchestra players! I am working as hard as I can to get the room ready for Monday but I am still in need of a few helpers to assist with picture hanging tomorrow at 10:45am. It should take around an hour to complete. If you are interested then please send me an email to let me know. Thanks for your time!
