The University of Southern Mississippi will be hosting their annual All-South Honor Band weekend on February 8-10th, 2019.

Pace Band students travel to Hattiesburg, MS to participate in this event as a group with several parent chaperones.  Before submitting an audition, understand that there is a Registration Fee (paid directly to USM if you are accepted) and an additional Hotel Fee (paid directly to the Pace HS Band - this amount varies from year to year).

​Any student who is interested in participating will need to submit an online audition before January 9th.  Information and the audition link are below.

Our Holiday Concert is Tuesday, December 11th @ Pine Terrace Baptist Church - this is a mandatory performance that will feature ALL students in the band program (Jazz, Concert, Symphonic, and Wind Ensemble)

Our full band composite photo will be taken on Wednesday, December 12th at 8:30a - all marching band students will need to be dressed in their FULL uniform BEFORE 8:25a - the photo will be taken in the stadium and we will be finished by 9:00am.

Students participating in the BAND HONORS program have a lengthy written assignment that is due on Monday, December 17th.  For additional information regarding this assignment, please see Mr. Denaro.

All Pace and Milton band students will be performing in the Milton Veteran's Day Parade on Monday November 12th.

Students should plan on arriving at Milton HS NO LATER THAN the 8:15am call time.  Enter the campus from Park Avenue NW and park anywhere that is available.

Students should be dressed in a band t-shirt, shorts, black socks, and their band shoes.  Excluding battery percussion and sousaphones, students should have their instrument as well (leave your case in the car).  They will put on the rest of the Patriot uniform as soon as they arrive.

The parade steps off at 9:30am and will end at the downtown Milton River around 10:30am.  BEFORE each student is permitted to leave, they will need to make sure that their Patriot uniform is hung up and put away properly.  

Those students who drive themselves should make prior arrangements to have someone park downtown and someone else park at Milton HS.  Please do not plan on "walking back" to the Milton campus... it is too far.

Please take a moment to read through our trip itinerary and packet for next weekend.  All students and parents are encouraged to save a copy on their phone.
