Happy Tuesday to everyone,
We had a great game last Friday as well as a good pregame and halftime performance. We are continuing to improve as the season progresses but I must remind everyone that attendance at practice is mandatory. Monday night I experienced the highest absence percentage of my career in the brass section. Of those absent I received notification for 2 students. As a reminder please fill out a planned absence form if you know you have an unavoidable conflict. If you have a last minute absence a short email will suffice just fine. Today I will cover the following info: Friday Timeline Uniforms for Friday Labor Day Parade info and Concert at Victory Park Friday Night Timeline 3:10 - Dress rehearsal on band practice field 4:10 - Dismiss. Take instruments with you! 5:30 - Report to Ridgeview parking lot. Students park in grass lot closest to C3 church. (on the ridge)* 5:45 - Warm-up 6:25 - Parade from Ridgeview parking lot. Students park in grass lot closest to C3 church. (on the ridge)* 6:50 - pregame 7:00 - Kick-off * In order for for the parking to work I want to encourage SAFE car-pooling and/or parent drop off. Uniforms for Friday and Monday It is a bit too soon given the weather patterns surrounding Hurricane Ida to know what direction to go for Friday. I will announce as soon as possible once I get a clear picture of the Friday night forecast. Keep in mind student safety drives uniform decisions. Not necessarily "Tradition". I will be sure to announce ASAP. Monday will be summer uniforms, white shoes and white ankle socks. Labor Day Parade The Labor Day parade is a Pickerington Tradition. It begins with a parade and ends with a brief concert in Victory Park. Report time is 8am, Step-off for the parade is 10am. The concert start time changes from year to year. It simply begins when the parade has concluded and the bands are completely set-up. The best viewing of the concert is from a lawn chair on the Victory park tennis courts. Students will be dismissed at the conclusion of the concert which has ranged anywhere between 12;30-1:30 in years past. Please come support both awesome bands in Pickerington. UPDATE: I failed to publish the parent volunteers for Friday! Thank you parent boosters for your time! Jeff Mayzum Erin Gorgas Kelly Brick Leah Varone Patricia Manley Robin Saionzkowski David Horton
