Important – Please Read – HS Band

Mr. VanStrien

We were just informed at 12:30pm that the game time will be changed.  

Due to the predicted severe weather the game time will now start at 5:30. The schedule is below:

3:30 – Booster are providing Pizza (Thank you boosters for doing this on extreme short notice)

4:00 – 4:30 – Uniforms

4:45 – Report to field

5:00 – March to Stadium

Due to rain –

-Woodwinds must have CASES with them and bring them to the stadium

-Rain coats will be handed out

-No plumes (The died plumes look fantastic and we don’t want to ruin them with the rain or ruin our uniforms)

Other

-Hair must be put up INSIDE of shako (BOYS & GIRLS)

Be flexible – We will handle these changes TOGETHER!
