Welcome back to a brand new year of school!
Thanks to all the members of the 2010 Blue Raider Marching Band for an exceptional band camp! You all worked so hard and I am so proud of how much we were able to accomplish. Let's keep this going! If we keep on working like this throughout the entire season, we are going to have a great show! I'm excited, and I hope you are, too! :)
Our first halftime performance is this Friday, August 27th. We WILL be wearing our uniforms. Please see me as soon as possible if you need a pair of marching shoes (Dinkles). I have many used pairs in the band room that we can use for this first performance.
We will meet in the band room NO LATER than 6:15pm on Friday. It is very important to be on time! Since this is the first performance wearing the uniforms, we need to make sure we have plenty of time to get ready. We will load the band trailer when you arrive at the school, and then we will load the buses and head down to the field at 6:45. We will perform both pregame and halftime. Once our halftime performance is over, students will be able to change out of uniform and return to the stands to watch the rest of the game. The buses will head back up to the high school as soon as the game is finished. Once all instruments and uniforms are returned to the band room, students will be free to leave.
JV football players will ride the buses back up to the high school once their game is finished. They will then be responsible for getting their band uniform and instruments and meeting us back at the field for halftime.
I am very excited to begin our 2010 Blue Raider Marching Band performances! Let's make this first one great! :)
If you have any questions, please come see me!
