feet, Left foot on 1 and 3, Right foot on 2 and 4). Results will be
posted shortly after the final audition day. Do not hesitate

GLAMOUR SHOTS
So what is a Glamour Shot? It's a portrait of
your student (in uniform and with their instrument), superimposed in
front of the whole band. Glamour Shots is a fundraiser for the
BPA, but more than that, these portraits are treasures for students,
parents, grandparents and others. They are reasonably priced and
professionally printed.
