Reminder – Marching Band Tech Night

Tomorrow (9-19) will be our Marching Band Tech Night.  This will be some of the only time we have to work in the stadium as we prepare for Marching Festival.  The rehearsal is from 6:30-9:00 but we will wrap up on the field about 8:45 so everyone can be packed up by 9:00.   If you are a student-athlete and have a game, please let Mr. VanStrien know.   You will not be deducted points for playing in a game. 

These are some of the things we will cover:

Block C for Pregame – This works best on the stadium field

Moving props in and out of formation

Setting the Monopoly prop and its function on the field

Memorization and Sectional Work

Feedback from an adjudicator on the show

Using Backfield speakers to work on staying in step

Learning to project sound to the press box

And of course, adjusting to the bigger field and playing under the lights

We are looking for some donations for snacks and such for the trip to CMU this Saturday. All can be dropped off Friday at the High School Band Room or the High School office with a note that it is for the band. Please see the opportunities for help support the band.

Please see below to sign up.
