“Saskatchewan Lions Band”

This year the “Saskatchewan Lions Band” partnership moved up a class to AA donned the Pride of the Lions uniforms for the MACBDA Tour.   The marching band is  fortunate to have the expertise of many RLB alumni, marching instructors Chad Huel and Mike Farmer, and Percussion instructors Chris and Jeff Worthington.  Jennifer Bishop and Jenna Lambert are also teaching colour guard clinics.  

 

Presently, the SLB has forty-three members and we are still actively recruiting for more.  In this regard, the RLB is offering one-time scholarships in the amount of $500.00 to five students who have marching and music experience.  These scholarships cover marching fees for the year and part of your tour levy, which includes all meals, activities and accommodations for the tour.  Your cost for the entire year and tour is only $500.00.   

 

The 2007 fall marching season begins with band camp on Sept 21, 22, 23 at Camp Easter Seal at Manitou Beach near Watrous.  More details TBA.  Camp fees are included in your $300 marching fees, or are $100 if you are not registered in the marching program.

 

Marching clinics will be held once a month in Saskatoon at various locations.  Out of town students are billeted with families from Saskatoon. For those who require billeting the cost is $5/day.  Clinic times & locations will be announced later.   Please check schedules for this information.

 

Marching fees are $300 for the year plus five compulsory bingos worked by June 1st in either Regina or Saskatoon.

  

Fees for the 2008 summer Tour will be $700, (by fundraisers, bingos or cash).  $350 is due December 30th and the balance is due June 1.  Tour fees include all meals, activities and accommodations for the tour.  The 2008 tour will take place June 28 to July14.  The band will travel to Minnesota, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin and Michigan, and will also visit the Wisconsin Dells Waterpark, Six Flags Theme Park, Traverse City Cherry Festival and the Mall of America.
