HOMECOMING 2012

Well Homecoming 2012 has come and gone. The MTA family came together again to celebrate homecoming, honor "ole Jones High", and have a great time. Below are photos from game day. The Tigers beat the West Orange Warriors 34-27. It's GREAT being a Tiger!

MARCHING TIGER MEET & GREET

On Wednesday, September 26, 2012, Marching Tiger Alumni will be hosting its annual homecoming Meet & Greet for the Marching Tiger Band at 7pm, in the band room. The Meet & Greet is a “food and fun” event held for the students to help celebrate homecoming and to give us, alumni, a chance to give back to the band and to meet the students.

Feeding the students is a big part of this occasion and your contributions, in the past, have helped to make this event a success. This year I am asking for your contributions again. You can contribute any food or drink item of your choice (i.e. finger foods, sandwiches, chicken, veggie trays, fruit trays, juices, desserts, etc…). Items should be dropped off on Wednesday, September 26, 2012 between 4:30pm and 6pm in the band room.

We are preparing to feed approximately 100 band students. Please contact me via Facebook or jhsbandalum@yahoo.com, to let me know what item you will be bringing. Thank you in advance for your contribution.

In Marching Tiger Spirit,
Audrey D. Dawson
