Weekend Update

Music Booster Followers... we have a BIG weekend ahead!  It all "kicks" off with a post-season football game in Melrose.  Game time is 7pm at Melrose High School.

Sunday afternoon, the Music Booster's presents a Gala Concert and Silent Auction, featuring the New England Tenors, many BHS singers, and a few performances on the new Steinway.  This is a wonderful event for people of all ages to enjoy!  Come early to look over the auction items and enjoy some tasty treats during intermission.  The show begins at 2pm in the Fogelberg Performing Arts Center.  Tickets may be purchased by calling 781 - AFunTic or at the door.

Friday Night Lights

Let's start the weekend with some BHS Football!  The Burlington Red Devils take on Wakefield Friday night at Varsity Field.  Game time is 7:00pm.  The marching Red Devils will thrill the crowd at half-time as well as pre- and post- game tunes.  Come out and enjoy!

By the way... if you have yet not had the privilege to see the halftime show, check out this you tube video from a few weeks ago.    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hu3sp0F3dV0    The show is bigger and better now and of course, really fantastic in person!

Gala Concert and Silent Auction

The Burlington High School Music Boosters Association is proud to host its sixth annual "Gala Benefit Concert and Silent Auction" on Sunday afternoon, November 3rd, 2013, at 2 PM in the Fogelberg Performing Arts Center at Burlington High School.

This year's theme for the Gala will be "Favorite Songs From Around the World", including Italian, Irish, American, and French songs.  We are proud to feature the New England Tenors and Burlington High School's very own Chorus and Select Chorus. In addition, we will be showcasing Burlington High's brand new Steinway & Son's grand piano. 

Burlington High School Performing Arts Director John Middleton-Cox leads the trio of the New England Tenors. He is joined by tenors Damien Corcoran and Jeffery Hartman. They are accompanied by pianist Wayne Ward, violinist Peter Stickel and BHS grad and current Berkley student Patrick Hanafin.

Intermission will offer a time to bid on silent auction items while enjoying tasty refreshments graciously provided by Shaws, Stop and Shop (of Bedford and Woburn), Market Basket, Delicious Desserts, Lacascia’s, Burlington Marriott and Bedford Doubletree. Among the items to bid on include a weekend night stay and breakfast, one at the Hilton Garden Inn and one at the Doubletree Hilton in Bedford, restaurant gift cards from the Capital Grill, Seasons 52 as well as Not Your Average Joe’s. Other items include health club memberships, massages, Nashoba Valley lift tickets, and a host of other surprises!

General admission tickets for the "Gala Benefit Concert and Silent Auction" are $10 for students and senior citizens, and $15 for adults. All proceeds from this event will benefit the BHS Music Boosters and the Select Singers' trip to perform at Carnegie Hall in New York this upcoming year! Tickets are available through the Burlington High School Chorus members, by phone at 781-A-FUN-TIC, and at the door. Doors open and bidding begins at 1:30 pm. Fogelberg Performing Arts Auditorium is handicapped-accessible. 

New Address for Tonight's Game!

Sorry for any confusion, but the game in Watertown tonight is actually at Victory Field, 40 Orchard Street,  (not the high school). Please take note and load this address into your GPS.

Game Time

This week the BHS Marching Red Devils show off their stuff in Watertown!  Please join us for some exciting football and a terrific half-time show.  Marching Band students are at the top of their game after last week's Invitational in Salem, New Hampshire.  Game time is 7:00pm.  It should be a clear and crisp evening, so an extra layer is probably a good idea.   For GPS purposes, the address for the high school is:  50 Columbia Street,  Watertown MA 01747.  Catch you at the game!

Busy Weekend Ahead

There's a lot happening in the music department this weekend, and we want you to share all the fun! First, Friday Night Lights features the Burlington Varsity Football team playing Stoneham on home territory. Game time is 7:00pm.  This will be the final dress rehearsal before the marching band's feature event of the year.. the Salem Invitational. The band will travel to Salem, New Hampshire on Saturday, October 12th for a 6pm show.    All fans are encouraged to attend and get there early!  All band members are reminded to eat a hearty meal before the show and bring money for concessions.  If you'd like directions to the Salem show, just check out this link:
