Support local businesses!Please remember to support our local businesses as you are able - now and later! Many local businesses support our band year after year, and we want to help during these challenging times. Here are this years' generous sponsors and benefactors:
Dominos Pizza (Soapstone location) Ghaffari Orthodontics Glory Days Lucia's Italian Ristorante MaCarthur Beverages Pure Chiropractic Reston Music/The Music Stores Samson Properties Taco Zocalo The UPS Store (South Lakes Village Center) Wiygul Automotive Clinic UPDATED: SLHS Band Selected for National Concert Band Festival!We are proud to announce that the SLHS Wind Ensemble has been selected to perform at the 2020 Music for All National Concert Band Festival in Indianapolis! Following a rigorous application and evaluation process, SLHS is one of just 16 ensembles selected from across the nation to perform on the main stage at this prestigious event. This is South Lakes' 4th time receiving this honor - the 3rd time under the direction of Grayson Fore.
UPDATE: Sadly, due to COVID-19, the trip (and ultimately the festival) was canceled - AFTER it was paid for. We are grateful that Mount Vernon Travel generously refunded 100% of the bus cost & Music for All refunded a portion of the remaining cost. The Band Boosters absorbed a significant portion of the loss so more could be refunded directly to our families. We appreciate donations to help us offset this loss, as well as lost revenue from canceled fundraisers. 
Selection to the National Concert Band Festival follows closely on the heels of the band's selection to another nationally-recognized event - the Pearl Harbor Memorial Parade. In December 2017, 119 of our students traveled to Honolulu to honor veterans, represent our community and enjoy the trip of a lifetime! Our students had many amazing experiences - they stood on the deck of the USS Missouri - site of the Japanese surrender and performed a tribute concert at the site; gazed up at the names of those lost and peered down at their watery resting place at the USS Arizona memorial; hiked up Diamond Head to experience beautiful views of Honolulu below; enjoyed the sights, sounds, smells and tastes of Polynesian culture at the PCC; and swam in the Pacific Ocean and played on Waikiki Beach with some other best friends.
