Dear Parents and Students:
We would like to extend an invitation for you to be a part of the 2008-2009 edition of the Liberty High School Mountaineer Marching Band! Being a member of the LHS Band requires a great amount of responsibility and commitment. Over the past few years the band has been recognized on the local, state, and national levels as an outstanding musical organization. You must be willing to perform to the best of your abilities and to cooperate with the directors in order to uphold the reputation that has been set forth. With your talent and assistance, we’re sure we will be able to continue this great tradition and produce a top-notch performing group.
Please take a few moments to review the enclosed information about the upcoming year and mark all important dates on your calendar.
We look forward to seeing you soon!
