Good morning all, There is much to go over this week. I will try my best to be concise. We will be hosting Hilliard Bradley this Friday at home in a televised game on Spectrum. Be sure to take note of the start time change to 7:07 and set your DVR's. Uniforms On Friday our uniform is purple pants with black socks. (no ankle socks!) Saturday our uniform is full white uniforms. For the students this means you will wear your white bibbers. White bibbers will be picked up Saturday morning after our dress rehearsal. Word of warning: any colorful, bright shorts will show through the white pants. Be sure to avoid ultra bright shorts under your uniform. White socks must be worn on Saturday as well. Continue to work hard to get your snap hems at the correct height. We had less gathering last Friday but still need to correct a few. ISO: We have 1 pair of tuxedo pants that we need stitch hemmed. If you have this skillset and are willing to hem 1 pair of pants, please contact Mr Stowe, Vanessa Niekamp, Robin Saionskowski or Katie Kirtin.
