The Jonathan Law High School band has a lot planned for this year.
The band performed at a football game with eighth graders from West Shore and Harborside and at the recent Middle School Open House.
“In September we did strong at the first football game, and the month was very productive,” junior Max Warner said. “The past 3-4 weeks have been pretty good, as we have nearly perfected ourselves in marching, Jazz Band has begun, and we are preparing for our parades later this year.”
Warner said the band is already prepping for the upcoming Thanksgiving Day football game – and for many more events down the road.
“We are hyped for the Thanksgiving game, which is huge for us,” Warner said. “This year it’s at Law, which will ensure turnout for a lot of Lawmen (an advantage for us!) We hope to have a productive Winter Concert in December and our band is very excited for the possibility of a Virginia trip. Until then we are back and better than ever for a ‘Lawmazing’ season.”
The band has been working as hard as they can to make sure they can get as good as they can be for the Thanksgiving game and the possible Virginia trip.
“I’m so excited for the events the band has planned for this year, and I’m very happy to be proud of what the band is doing this year,” said freshman Bridget Dwyer.
Junior Mike Nunno is excited about the possibility of a Virginia trip.
“The band has a possibility of a Virginia trip for this year which is really cool and the parades this year are super fun so I’m looking forward to that,” Nunno said. “I think this year is going to be super awesome over all, and I can’t wait to see what else we might be planning.”
The band has always worked hard to achieve their goals for any games or events they’ve had, even going to Six Flags for the Music in the Parks Festival.
Since then, the Band has been trying hard to improve as much as they can get for upcoming games and parades.
“I really believe that we have what it takes to be our best this year,” said freshman Chris Sandholm. “The band has been doing super great so far and I have no doubt that we will be able to keep it up. We’ve worked really hard to get to where we are now and it would be a shame if that hard work all went to waste.”
