Trips

All students and chaperones should be registered and paid their first installment. The second installments are due on Thursday, September 15.

The trip page of the website will be updated as information becomes available.


Uniforms

Please refer to THIS PAGE of the website regarding Uniforms – what is needed, how to wear, what to pack in red bags, etc.

Leadership teams should have shared with the students about an incentive offered by the uniform crew (aka Mother Pluckers) for the game tonight, ask them about it. They should have also been reminded of some rules about wearing the uniforms – clean shaven, no jewelry, no makeup, no eating in uniform, etc. Please have your students refresh themselves as uniforms were returned in not-great condition after wearing them last.


Thank you for all of the support you provide to our band and our students!
