Week One Reminders

With the start of school tomorrow I know everyone is busy and may need a few reminders as we prepare for our first game this week:



  • Pass-Offs for Halftime are due by 3:30 on Wednesday. This gives you an hour after rehearsal to finish up with any uncompleted pass-offs. Remember, if you have not attempted all Pass-Offs for Pre-Game and Halftime you will not have third quarter off on Friday!

  • Emergency Medical Forms and Uniform fees were due during Band Camp. If you still owe us those forms/$ you will not have third quarter off on Friday! If you are having financial difficulties you can sign a fee contract with Ms. Zunic and that will fill your requirement.

  • Games start at 7:00 PM this year! Please check the itinerary (on the website) for drop off and pick up times!

  • There is no Wednesday night rehearsal this week because of the start of the school year - but don't forget, we will rehearse until 3:00 on Thursday this week! It is crucial we have everyone for the entire rehearsal on Thursday!

  • Parents - are you able to help out by chaperoning on Friday? Just show up with the kids and we'd love to have you! (Please note, no younger siblings are permitted to ride the bus).

  • Make sure your rain coat is camp dried and your pants are hemmed for Friday's game!

  • T-Shirt orders are due on Friday - remember, checks only! (Parents, if you haven't seen the order form yet, ask your son/daughter to pick one up in the band room!

At 9:00 PM we will play the fight song and Alma Mater and students will be dismissed after the Alma Mater. At that time you are free to go or can stay for the bonfire. We will wear our band shirts and dark shorts/pants for this performance.
