SOMETIMES I HATE COMPUTERS!!!

Well, folks, the program for me to do most of what I do to communicate with you has crashed and burned - can you smell the smoke? :(

OK, so we'll improvise. We need adults to work in several areas of RhythmFest. Food and Security are the biggest needs, as well as Tickets. Here's how to sign up:

  • Food - Email Stephanie H and list your three preferred times to work - morning, mid-day, or evening, in order of preference, with any special information she would need to know.


  • Security - Email Karen D and list your three preferred times to work - morning, mid-day, or evening, in order of preference, with any special information she would need to know.
  • Tickets - Email Laurie W and list your three preferred times to work - morning, mid-day, or evening, in order of preference, with any special information she would need to know. whitehousenw@comcast.net
Please copy your emails to kmckee@ttsd.k12.or.us.

These are all live links - use them now! :)

Tomorrow afternoon we'll open up the time slots to band members to choose when they will work, so if you want the best shot at getting your favorite time, choose soon!

Tune In For More Information...AND Basketball!


Hi Folks!

RhythmFest signups will be available after 5pm Thursday - check back and see what YOU can do for RhythmFest!

Also, Friday is the GBX/BBX Doubleheader against Forest Grove. This means more hungry people for us to feed - YAY! Working concessions on Friday are Ally E, Tyler P,
Patrick B, Frannie W, Linda E (Parent), and Cathi P (Parent). I'll see you all between 4 and 4:30PM!

Musings on a Snowy Morning...

Well, look at all that snow! The forecast is for rain by mid-day, so we'll procede as usual.

That means feeding hungry fans at the basketball game tonight! It's BBX vs. Canby, and after the way the girls took care of those Cougars last night, you know the Canby fans will be wanting revenge, and that will make them hungry! Working tonight will be Nick B, Bernie G, Sierra B, and Joan S (Parent) - we'll see you around 5:30.

Also, the Food Committee for RhythmFestwill be meeting Wednesday February 11 at 7pm. We'll convene in the Band Room, but may move to McKee's classroom. If you can't find us, head up the stairs by the band lockers and turn left - we'll be in Room 215 in the corner.

See you there!

THS Grad On the Grammys!


For only the 2nd time ever, musicians from the USC Band will appear on the Grammys, and for the 2nd time, a Tigard High School drummer will be there! Blake Phillips, our own curly-headed drummer/oboe player extraordinaire from THS Class of 2007, will appear with Radiohead in the opening act. And who was the previous Tigard grad to have such an honor? None other than Trevor Phillips, Blake's older brother!

Watch Blake on the Grammys - Sunday February 8 at 8pm Pacific on KOIN TV Channel 6 - and don't be late!
He'll be in the front right corner as you look at the screen.
