Announcements Week of Aug 18

We’ve got an exciting few weeks ahead of us, including a very important added performance that we just received an invitation for!


THIS WEEK:


  • Monday August 18 - Rehearsal 8am-12pm - Starting AT PRACTICE FIELD

    • Upperclassmen - Your orientation starts at 9:30.  You will be dismissed at 9am so you can be first in line to get ID’s/Pictures/Parking passes/Etc.  It is an open house format, so once you do those things or any other items you will return to rehearsal as soon as possible.

    • DRUMLINE PERFORMANCE: As soon as rehearsal ends at Noon - Drumline is going to move to the main entrance outside of the FAC and play cadences as Freshman arrive for orientation.  Approximately 12:15-12:30.  Upperclassmen and Mr. Wellfare will put away Freshman equipment so they can go straight to orientation. Please wear show shirt


LOOKING AHEAD:


  • NEW - August 26 PERFORMANCE - We have been invited to perform for the dedication of the new football stadium on Tuesday Aug. 26.  This will be our first time in full uniform.  The event starts at 6:30pm.  Once I know more about what is expected of us and I receive a program for the organizers I will have a minute by minute itinerary.  For now, here is my best guess:

    • 5:30pm - Arrive and change into uniform/inspection

    • 6:00pm - Marching to stadium

    • 6:30pm - Ceremony

    • 7:30pm - Approximate Done/Get picked-up.

  • Reminder - Our first home football game is THURSDAY Aug 28 (this will be our only Thursday game)


OTHER ANNOUNCEMENTS:




Have a great day!



Update

Upperclassmen Orientation is set to happen during our rehearsal on Monday Aug 18.  


This is apparently a bigger conflict that I thought it was going to be.  


I will work out a plan and send an update later this week.


Thank you for your patience,




Announcements Week of Aug 11

Hopefully you’ve all had a chance to rest and recover from our Band Camp week!  We learned so much in a short period of time, and now it’s time to get back at it!


THIS WEEK:


  • Monday August 11 - Rehearsal 8am-12pm - Starting in Band Room!


LOOKING AHEAD:


  • Monday August 18 - This rehearsal will also be from 8am-12pm (originally we thought this is when school would start, so it showed as an evening rehearsal)


  • Colorguard - Brandon will communicate any extra rehearsals with you.


OTHER ANNOUNCEMENTS:




Friends and Family Show

Please join us on Friday at 11am as we present what we have learned so far in our 2025 Marching Band Show “Scotland Forever”


We will be at our practice field and you can park in the south campus parking lot.


As soon as the performance is done, students will clean up and be dismissed for you to take them!
