Where to Go and What You Need for Freshmen Day and Leadership Team
I wanted to give a couple updates on where freshmen and leadership should go on Wednesday. Here is some details so you will be ready!
– Report to the Marching Band Field in back of the school
– Leadership Team members will line up at the front of the yard lines. One member per yard line. Please be early so the freshmen will know where to go.
– Freshmen should sit or stand behind any leadership team member on a yard line.
– Leadership team members will welcome and greet our freshmen as they come in!
– Bring water and sunscreen and dress light to stay cool. Drinking water the night before is helpful!
– Bring your instrument but we will only be using it to demonstrate how to hold it. We won’t actually be playing them.
Leadership Team meeting will start at 12:00. We will have pizza for the team.
