Same as Banddad84, but in 2015. Lurked for 2 years, grew closer to the new "Family". Not just the Hawk family, but everyone else in the stands and in this forum. Lurking here for that long reading so many great stories, comments and how we all appreciate what these programs are to the performers and everyone involved tends to pull you in. My 2018 graduate and I are planning to make as many competitions as we can after she graduates. Prolly gonna be the Male version of LeanderMomma and txbands will be a neccessary form of info and communication.

Hendrickson chose Waco this year. Gonna miss the Houston Regional hospitality.

Nice and clean, yes. Just don't want to "stick" that landing!

Waving from S 114 r 14

Section?

Alamodome bound! To all of you going, Safe travels and good times!

Hendrickson is in great hands. Mr.A was with the school in the beginning. Spent a few years away at Connally and Bowie then returned in 2016. He knows the program, the staff, the student body and the boosters. He was the preference for replacing Mr. G. by all and will carry on the successes REHHS has had for the past several years. Agreed that Bowie will benefit the most. Mr. G will be great for them.

Hawk Band is represented in many of these Corps. Boston Crusaders: Declan, Daniel, Anthony, TJ, Taylor, Calvin Cavaliers: Jacob Phantom Regiment: Ashlynn and MarQuise Blue Stars: Josh

Anyone going to the San Antonio show?

So, Director of bands and staff of Hendrickson have been posted. I can now divulge that Mr. Atkinson (his bio is posted under faculty at hawksband.org) was the favorite among students, boosters and Mr. G himself. REHHS is ready to go for 2018. Go Hawk Band!

Robert E. Hendrickson 2011: Cathedral - Harmony & bliss 2012: Dr. Atomic - Chaos & catastrophy 2013: The War of Art - Going into battle 2014: Unraveled - Everything coming apart 2015: Lost - Searching for hope 2016: 3D - Having a vision 2017: Just Another Brick - Breaking down the wall, freedom 2018: well, hmmm Band parent show reveal complete. Director and new assistants named. I am not at liberty to divulge anything and my head is going to explode! I can divulge that the 1st payment for 2018 is due tomorrow though.

Gunderson rebranded in 2017. Using the full name of the school giving HHS fine arts a more formal moniker.

Mr. G has been one of the best and is well respected at Hendrickson. He and Duffy made a great combo. G has always been positve when it comes to Bowie, so when he anounced that he would be moving there, personally, it wasn't a surprise. It may take some time, but G is a good thing for Bowie. I'll be rooting for them. Hope they have a great 2018. Hendrickson should be ok. The past three or four years has been really successful and the 2018/2019 seniors, juniors and softmores along with the amazing feeder schools supplying a wave of talented musicians have got the experience, the talent and desire to keep the ball rolling. It's up to the district to find the right leader for the program.

We'll need to split some Kettle Corn at the Palace and keep Daniel stocked with sun screen.

Not creepy at all. Met Cindy at S.A. BOA SR. Wonderful lady. Mike - Hendrickson dad of sax daughter. Looking forward to the 2018 season.

2014-Unravelled (BOA?) 2015-Lost (Finals Special Exhibition Performance) 2016-3D (Finals Performance) Getting better every year. Looking forward to 2018.

PFISD-Weiss is setting at 1175. All of which were pulled from 2 middle schools and Hendrickson. Hendrickson went from around 3600 last year down to 2650 this year. Cele MS fed HHS last year. Now they feed Weiss. My 8th grader had a concert earlier this year. I commented on how much their band has grown. Not enough room on the stage and the gym is too small. The band took up the entire cafeteria (common area) floor. She laughed and said, "Dad, the 6th graders aren't even in the concert today." CMS - A little over 200 in the band program. BTW, Cele is the only middle school that marches in local pfestivals. I have to agree with the comment from earlier. The middle school directors in this area are amazing.
