2022 Winter Percussion
|
The Bear Creek High School Winter Percussion group is a competitive percussion ensemble that will perform at both in-person and video-recorded ‘virtual’ opportunities through the Rocky Mountain Percussion Association (RMPA). Our performances marry the elements of music performance, marching, and theatre in an indoor setting.
The BCHS Winter Percussion groups have been 11 time state champions, WGI National Finalists and have been selected to perform at the Music For All National Percussion Festival as one of the top 12 ensembles in the US. Season begins in January and the ensemble competes through April. |

Additional Information
1) Check-In/Health Screening will be like it was for marching band, only students will now report to the "backyard" as we call it (the west side of the building by the band room/auditorium area). This will begin at 3:00 PM.
2) Pick-Up will be at the south parking lot.
3) We will rehearse outdoors, weather permitting. Precipitation, excessive wind, and/or temperatures below 45 degrees will force us indoors (band room, stage, etc.). That being said, plan to have cold weather clothing/accessories at hand for ALL rehearsals!
4) If you anticipate a late arrival, early release, or an absence for any rehearsal, a parent must email or text Colin Constance at pangock@hotmail.com or (785) 979-5618 to be excused. Thank you to those who have already contacted me about conflicts for the first rehearsal!
5) Lastly, students that still have a drumline instrument at home need to bring that to the next rehearsal, please.
