HAGERTY HIGH SCHOOL BAND

INFORMATION PACKET2018 - 2019

3225 Lockwood AvenueOviedo, FL 32765

(407) [email protected][email protected]

Dear current and future Hagerty Band Students/Parents,

On behalf of the directors, staff and HHSBBA, we welcome you to the Hagerty Band Program! We are very excited about what this year’s season will bring and we hope you have an incredible experience in this band program. In this letter, we want to give you as much information as possible. If you have any questions please feel free to contact us at 407-871-0722 or email us at [email protected] or [email protected].

Being part of the Hagerty Band Program will be an experience you will never forget. Our marching band, concert bands, and percussion have enjoyed the distinction of earning superior ratings both at this year’s regional and state MPAs, as well as many other high honors. Our color guard has continued to grow and compete with great results, including a 3rd place at state competition.

Our philosophy at Hagerty is to excite students about music, develop outstanding young musicians, and create well-rounded individuals. We push our students to not only become great musicians, but great people.

The Hagerty Band Program depends on a strong commitment from its members. It requires time and energy both during and outside of school. With a strong commitment from our students comes great excellence in their future. As a member, you will learn leadership skills and build personal relationship that will help you in whatever you choose to do in your life. Most importantly, you will learn to make music - to appreciate it, to perform it, and to love it.

Brad Kuperman and Brian Kuperman Directors Hagerty High School

The information within the forms is required so that students can participate in band camp. The Release and Consent form requires notarization and there will be a notary on site during registration for your convenience.

Band fees for the 2018 - 2019 school year are $250. A $50 deposit is required of all members at registration. Your deposit will be applied toward your overall band fees, which are outlined on the “fees” form. Also due at registration will be payment for any required uniform items that a student needs to purchase or replace. This would include a band polo shirt, marching shoes, concert shirt and extra gloves or show shirt.

If a student has a balance from the previous year, it must be paid in full to participate in Band Camp, in addition to the $50 deposit.

2018-2019 Student Fundraising Participation

The Band Directors and Band Boosters do their best to keep band fees to a minimum by running the Hagerty Stadium concessions stand, and our annual Apple Sales fundraiser. To make these fundraising activities a success, we need the help of all the band students, so both are required student activities.

Apple Sales is on Saturday, October 6, 2018 from 8:30am – 1:00pm. All students are required to participate. Students will sign up in groups to canvas the Hagerty High School neighborhoods, and parents will be asked to volunteer as drivers. If there is a schedule conflict, please email both directors to notify them.

Concession volunteers are needed all year. We run the concession stand for the football, soccer and lacrosse seasons, as well as for a few other county events.

All students are required to sign up for at least one 2-hour shift. If students volunteer for additional shifts, they can earn credit toward their band fees. A student is credited $6/hour for each hour they complete after 4 hours. (Starting with their 5th volunteer hour.) Many students will sign up with friends, or by section, and generally have a good time while they help the band.

Parents are also needed to volunteer for concessions. There needs to be an adult supervising each shift, so we ask all parents to volunteer for at least one shift as well. There are approximately 40 dates we need support through the school year, so if every parent can take a 2-hour shift, it helps spread the work out across all the band parents.

Students can also volunteer for additional concessions shifts to earn Bright Futures volunteer hours, instead of earning band fee credits.

Stay Connected with the Band

The Hagerty Band has a new website, hagertyband.org. The site will be your resource for highlights, upcoming events, parent’s information handbook and general band information.

The Hagerty Band also uses Charms Office for our official calendar of events, for signing up to chaperone or volunteer, and for recording student financials. Charms will be an important resource for you throughout the year. To access the site go to https://www.charmsoffice.com/In the top right of the site click on Login and select Parents/Students/Members:

When prompted enter the school code: hagertyhsband

You can view the calendar and sign-up to volunteer without taking any other steps.To log in and see your student’s account and review financial payments/balances, you need to enter your student’s password. The first time logging in, it will be your student’s school ID number, and can then be customized.

Ways to Volunteer

Joining the Hagerty High School Band Boosters Association is a great way to get involved with the band, and to help the students. Without the parent support this program would not achieve the level of excellence that it has. There are many ways to get involved throughout the year. Below are committees that are always looking for help. If you are interested in assisting, you can contact the committee chairs below or Mr. Kuperman or Mr. K.

Chaperoning- Each performance that takes place throughout marching and concert season usually calls for chaperones. Any off-campus event must have 1 chaperone per 10 students. You can sign up on Charms for these events. Just look for any calendar event that has a hand next to it. If you have questions, want to help or would like to be the committee chair, please contact Mr. Kuperman, Mr. K or Stefanie Watson - HHSBBA President.

Concessions- Concessions has become a main source of funding for the band program at Hagerty High School. Any school event that takes place in Sam Momery Stadium has concessions run by the Band Boosters Association. Last year this involved about 40 events. Each student will be required to work one event throughout the year, but we are always in need of more assistance from parents. You can find these dates on Charms. If you are interested or have any questions involving concessions, or would like to be the VP Concessions to lead the Concessions committee, please contact Mr. Kuperman, Mr. K or Stefanie Watson - HHSBBA President.

Hospitality- Throughout the school year we have multiple events that involve decorating and organizing. Examples of this are setting up pizza for middle school night, creating raffle baskets, decorating for concerts, and planning the end of year banquet. If you are good at organizing, a crafty person or just like to make things pretty, then the hospitality committee could use your help. Please contact Susanne Diatzikis at [email protected].

Historian- At the end of every school year we like to commemorate the moments that occurred throughout the entire school year with a slide show. We are looking for volunteers that are interested in taking pictures throughout the entire year and creating a slide show for the band banquet. If you love taking pictures and think you might be interested volunteering your time here, please contact Susan Rodriguez at [email protected].

Fundraising- Throughout the year the band participates in fundraising opportunities. Our largest event, Apple Canvasing, takes place in the fall. This involves the entire band and many parent drivers who take students out in the Oviedo community to sell bags of apples. We are always in need of drivers. If you are interested in helping with fundraising, please contact Lea Assenmacher at [email protected].

Spirit Cart- The spirit cart is keeper of all band merchandise sold throughout the year at football games and certain band events. If you are interested with helping please contact Cathy Berdine at [email protected].

Sled Dogs- The sled dogs are the equipment movers throughout the year. They assist mainly during the marching season with loading and unloading trailers, helping front ensemble on and off the field, and the occasional tailgating. If you are interested, please contact Tammy Owens at [email protected].

Uniforms- Each year students are fitted for a marching uniform and concert uniform. This is a lengthy process with over 180 students and volunteers are always needed, not only for fitting uniforms but for hemming. Dates and times for fitting will be sent out in an email. If you are available or interested in helping please email Krista Helms at [email protected].
