State Championships are the culmination of the marching band season. This year’s State Championships will take place at Robbinsville High School on October 31st. Performance times for State Championships will not be available until next week. The show this weekend counts towards seeding for State Championships for everyone so scores from this weekend will need to be calculated into the seeding rubric in order to get the specific time. Our group starts at 2:45 PM and the last group performs at 5:15 PM with awards at 5:45 PM. I estimate NBTHS will be on towards the end of the block but we will not know specifics until next week.
Tickets are on sale now for State Championships! Tickets are available online and for every ticket sold online, $5 will go back to our band!!! Online tickets are only available until 11:59 PM on October 30th. If you do not purchase the tickets online the $5 per ticket will NOT go back to the band.

The band parents are selling Boo Grams leading up to State Championships as a way for friends, family, and other students to encourage our band students and staff as they prepare for State Championships. I think we can all agree that the band is having a great season and this is a great way for anyone that wants to participate to encourage our students as they prepare for States.
Boo Grams can be purchased using the link below for $1 each or 6 for $5. Each Boo Gram includes a message, small candy treat, and a Halloween squishy since State Championships are on Halloween this year. All Boo Grams must be purchased by Tuesday, October 27th and the Boo Grams will be handed out at the end of the last regular practice on Wednesday, October 28th. Boo Grams can be purchased for anyone in the marching band or any of the marching band staff. This is a great way for friends/family near and far to send good thoughts to our NBTHS Marching Band members and staff.
Attached is the weekly schedule. We will not know our performance time at State Championships until tomorrow. All updates to the schedule will be done using this link so please check back tomorrow evening for updates on Saturday: https://canva.link/lbgtno0k6mzzbj1
On Wednesday at 7:45 PM all parents are invited to watch the band’s final regular practice run of their 2026 show “The Climb” in the stadium. This is a great way to come and support your band member as they gear up for state championships. At the end of the practice the students will receive their Boo Grams as well! Thank you so much to everyone that has purchased Boo Grams. As of Friday night I have packaged 300 grams! I ordered more supplies that evening to continue filling orders that are coming in but unfortunately squishies were no longer available in time. I did find an alternate item to put in the grams that I think the students will also enjoy.

Chaperones are needed for State Championships competition. If you can chaperone please fill out the link below. Remember, chaperones get in for free and you get an up close and personal view of the show. Here is the link to chaperone: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C054BA4A92BA2FBC52-66651781-stateSince our band kids are competing in state championships on Halloween I thought it might be a cute idea to support their mountain themed show with a little Halloween swag. If you are going to the show on Saturday and want to participate I thought purchasing this matching shirt might be a fun idea. If you purchase in by midnight TONIGHT it will arrive Wednesday. If you want to give me or my son Michael your shirt on Wednesday I can put NBTHS Band on the back in yellow letters. Just put your shirt in a bag with your name on it and I will get it back to you by Saturday. It is supposed to be warm on Saturday. Order in Royal Blue to have our school colors represented. Please message or email me if you order so I know how many to expect to put the letters on the back. Here is the link to order:https://a.co/d/01W9oSwD
The band has been asked to participate in the Rock the Vote fundraiser again this year. They would perform on Sunday, November 1st.

Special thanks to our photographer on senior night this week, our own David Mills! He did a wonderful job taking so many great pictures of our students. Please give him a week or so to edit the photos and then we will get them out to everyone.
