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
