The MMPB will be competing at the Area Marching Contest on October 30th in Bastrop. The band performs at 3:15 pm. The top 10 bands will advance to finals and perform again that evening.
The HS band received straight 1's at the Region Marching Contest in Burnet. This is the 4th year in a row for the band to receive a 1st division at marching contest and is the first step in attaining a sweepstakes. The concert & sight reading contest will be in March.
We also want to welcome Micheal Oreka to the Mason Puncher Band family!
He will be leading the JH band as well as helping with HS.
I'm not the best at keeping things updated on here, so if you are looking for specific info on something you can try our facebook page or just contact me directly. Email me (
bobby.halamicek@masonisd.net) or call the band hall (325-347-1122, ext 227) and leave a message and I'll get back to you as soon as I can!
Dates for the entire year have been posted under the band calendar page but some of those have already changed and I haven't had the time to make a new pdf file. There are 2 pdf files you can access - one showing dates for the entire year and one showing the schedule for Summer Band.
Last year (2020-21) we were able to pull off a mostly "normal" type year - once again the HS was able to accomplish their goal of achieving Sweepstakes! (That puts us at 3 straight years!) Marching band advanced to Area but we finished middle of the pack. We have another chance to advance this coming year and are hoping to move up as well as keep our Sweepstakes streak going!

CONCESSION STAND
WORK SCHEDULE
The fall is here and with that Puncher football AND Concession Stand Duty!!! If you have a band student in grades 5-12 please plan to help Mason Band Boosters run the Friday night concession stand. An updated listing of who is working when will be posted below as soon as we have one.
Our last home game is against Ozona on Nov 5th. 5th grade parents are in charge. Anyone who hasn't worked a shift for their child's credit can come work this game to earn credit for your kid!
Please do everything you can to show up for your 1 shift of work and if you can't attend that shift assigned to you PLEASE let us know or find a different date you can work and let us know of that. We need full participation in order to have an efficient concession stand that raises money to support our band!
