On Tuesday, November 29th from 6pm-7pm we will be meeting to make the audition cuts for the All-Region Auditions at the Odem Band Hall in Odem. All decisions will be final at 7pm on the audition cuts and we invite anyone who wishes to have input into the cuts to attend the meeting. Here are directions to the Odem Band Hall:

From Corpus Christi:

Follow US77 towards Houston (about 5 miles past I37 Junctio)

Before the Shell Station/Subway Turn Left onto W Turner Street.

(If you go to first light turn left there and follow the road until it T’s into Cook Ave, and then turn right into drive past tennis courts)

Follow the road/drive past the gym on the left. You can either park along the yellow posted fence on the grass, behind our cars on the side, or in the tennis court parking lot. The band hall is the building at the end of the drive next to the yellow posts where our practice field is.

From the East or South: 

Get to US77. If you are East of Odem turn left and follow it into town. Go past the stop lights, train tracks, etc. At the street past the Subway/Shell station turn right onto W. Turner Street. Follow the road/drive past the gym on the left. You can either park along the yellow posted fence on the grass, behind our cars on the side, or in the tennis court parking lot. The band hall is the building at the end of the drive next to the yellow posts where our practice field is.

The technical address is 1 Owl Square, Odem, TX 78370. We’re still in the construction phase right now so still in our existing building. Just come straight to the Band Hall for the meeting. We will send that information on audition cuts that evening to all of the addresses on this mailing list so you may tell your students the following day.

If you have any questions about the process please contact Steven Rash or Charles Cabrera and we’ll be happy to help! Best wishes to you and your students!
