Please support our wonderful Royal Oak High School Band and Orchestra and the students who give so much of their time and energy to be their best by attending the following:
Royal Oak will host a State Jazz Festival on April 17. The band will perform that day. We've done this before. I'll need kids all day, and lots of parent help. Last year I simply assigned parents. Many responded favorably, and it made the process MUCH easier. I'm likely to do the same again.
==== Scholarships ===========================
Band Juniors - Richard Perkins Scholarship
Band Seniors - John Borowski Scholarship
Band & Orchestra Seniors intending to be Music Majors - Royal Oak Musical Scholarship
See Mr. Jensen for applications and details.

David Jensen, Royal Oak High School Bands & Orchestras,

(added 1.7.10) Band and Orchestra Families,
See you on Tues., Karen Kline
===================
===================
Scholarship audition results for Blue Lake are starting to come in, and many are planning to attend. This camp gets my highest recommendation. If you plan to go, please get signed up and send the deposit asap. You can pay the deposit now and adjust the final balance after your scholarship results are final. The camp takes students on a first come, first served basis. (It seems every year we have a few who would like to go, but aren't able because they wait too long to sign up.)
====================
This freezing weather is very bad for our instruments. Please take the following precautions:
- Don't leave instruments in cars for extended periods of time.
- Orchestra students NEED humidifiers in their cases.
- If your instrument does get extremely cold, let it gradually return
to room temperature before playing.
====================
Thanks,
David Jensen

Royal Oak, our Alma Mater,
We lift our voices to you in praise.
As through many years we’re passing,
You’ll remain in our hearts always.
Your wise counsel and our friendships
Will stay with us during all our lives.
We’ll remember Royal Oak High School
As each one grows and each one strives.

Stand and cheer for the Royal Oak Ravens
United, strong and true
Knowing our victory is close at hand,
We hail the silver, black and blue!
The Raven Spirit can’t be broken
We are superior through and through.
Fight, Fight, Fight! Raven Team take flight
We’ll march to victory with you!
