Dear Musicians,
Thank you so much for agreeing to perform with us next week to recruit the next generation of Dodgen Band students!
************Please arrive at Dodgen Middle School at 1:45pm on Monday, August 3rd. ************
Here is the school’s address. If you need any help with directions, just reply to this email. Do know there is a Murdock Road and a Bill Murdock Road in the area. You want Bill.
Dodgen Middle School
1725 Bill Murdock Road
Marietta, GA 30062
Park in the front and enter through the main entrance. You will have to hit the button to call the front desk to let you in to sign in as a visitor. Once you have your visitor badge, follow the signs and arrows in the hallways to “Connections” and then “Band.” Enter the Band Room when you arrive and walk straight ahead to the “C.A.V.E.” (Cool Area for Various Ensembles).
When you arrive, there will be some paperwork for you to fill out and the sheet music for what we will play as a group. We will warm-up and leave cases here as well. We are performing “Best Day of My Life” and a John Williams medley! They are fairly good middle school level arrangements that we will be able to run through once and then sound amazing. Please dress casual, but not sloppy, for lack of a better word J
Each instrument will have 1 minute to talk about why you like it and play a short melody. If there are 2 people on the same instrument, you can decide who wants to talk/play. We will finish by 4:00pm at the latest so you can beat dismissal traffic out the door. Payment is $60 and your check will be mailed to you promptly.
Please feel free to email me with any questions. If you need any help locating us on Monday, call John Jeffres on his cell phone 404-232-0400 and he will assist you. We are looking forward to making music with you all!
Sincerely,
Brian Westphal
Associate Band Director
