  • Please Post on Band Bulletin Board
    Brian W. Dodd Director Dear Instrumentalists, Parents, Music Directors and Ohioans, I am pleased to announce that the Ohio State Fair will again sponsor the All-Ohio State Fair Band, a tradition that spans over 90 years. Below you will find a fact sheet and containing complete information for the 2017 Ohio State Fair. After familiarizing yourself with the dates and details, I invite eligible musicians to apply and for others to share this information with potential members of the AOSFB. The All-Ohio State Fair Band provides an excellent opportunity for your advanced players to work with a staff of over a dozen top-notch music specialists. In addition to regular rehearsals, there are “mini clinics” to improve playing techniques and sectional rehearsals to improve ensemble techniques. Our typical repertoire totals at least 50 selections of assorted band literature. Your student will return to school an even better musician, role model and leader – ready to contribute even more to school band programs. There are several scholarship awards given annually to members of the Band and limited financial aid is available. In addition to performing a wide range of repertoire for thousands of fairgoers, members create friendships that last a lifetime; and they gain new musical skills, self- confidence and expand their range of talent. To streamline the process this year, the AOSFB has shifted to utilizing an online application. Hard copies will not be distributed unless requested. Please let potential members know they should go to www.aosfb.com to access the application. Upon submission of the online application each parent/guardian will receive an email with a link to the parent consent form, and each band director will receive an email and link to the recommendation form.
