It is basketball season, which means it is time to start practicing for the Brookwood High School Pep Band! The pep band is a small ensemble of select instrumentalists who will play stand tunes at each of the home basketball games. Due to Covid-19 and limited spacing, only a select few students will be chosen to participate this year.
The most fair way to select students is to audition! Please note that if you audition and are selected to participate as a member, you are expected to attend all rehearsals and games. If you are unwilling to show up for many of our performances, your spot will be given to another student. There is no fee if you are selected.
Auditions are due by October 30th! (Audition materials and details listed below.)
