Helpful Hints
The best times to ask Mr. Messick a question are first thing in the morning or last thing in the afternoon.
The Band Room should be the first stop in the morning and the last stop in the afternoon. Instruments are kept in the Band Room, not in lockers.
![Page 30: THE BAND PROGRAM 2015 - 2016 Dave Messick Band Director Wilde Lake Middle School](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070403/56649f305503460f94c4a701/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Parents: photocopy your kid’s music at first sight of it. (This will save time in the event your child loses his music.)
Label EVERYTHING!!!!
Take out a rider on your insurance policy if you own the instrument and it is of substantial value.
Encourage your kids to practice and perform for the family often.
