Saturday details
1) The food committee has asked that students who want to eat the lunch provided by the committee bring $5.00 to help pay for the food. This is cheaper than what you would pay for concessions in the stadium, but the students will also have the option to eat in the stadium for supper or any other time.
2) We will need to eat a snack as soon as we get there since we perform right at lunchtime, and will not get to eat lunch until around 3 pm. I am asking that Percussion and Guard bring water (a six pack of water is fine), Woodwinds bring a fruit (apples, bananas, oranges are good options), and Brass bring snack cakes (Little Debbies, etc). This will insure that all students get hydrated and something not too filling in their stomachs before we perform.
3) Parents who are going to be part of the pit crew (helping Front Ensemble, props, and Guard flags) are asked to wear their band T-shirts and jeans.
4) Students will need to wear their Band T-shirts underneath their uniforms. Also, a reminder that they will be changing out of their uniforms between performances so they need to bring a change of clothes (or they can wear light clothing under their uniform).
5) Our performances are at 12:25 and 8:25. Admission will be $10 for spectators. Pit crew members will get in for free.

Schedule for tonight
FYI: Tonight's schedule for the football game will remain the same until further notice. If there are any changes due to the weather, I will post ASAP on the email, Facebook page, and twitter feed. Also, barring a miracle, it is very highly unlikely that we will be using the props tonight due to the rain.

Announcements 9/16/13
1) Report time for Friday is 5:15. We will practice with the Middle school 8th graders at 5:30 for the joint National Anthem. Homecoming activities will begin on the field at 6:30, and the game will start at 7:00
2) I am going to need a few more parents from here on out to help with the halftime show. I am adding the 4 props and the 2 cannons to the show this week. If you can help out, please let me know and I will find you Friday night and explain what I need you to do. I won't leave you lost and not knowing what to do.
3) I am changing the rehearsal next Tuesday (Sept 24) to a night rehearsal from 6-8 pm. This will give us a chance to have the parents practice with the props and cannons, and a chance for the band to rehearse on the actual football field before the first contest next Saturday. If you could possible help out with the props at any point this year, please try to make it to this rehearsal so you can learn where the props go and how they fit in to the show.
4) Seniors, remember that the videos and applications for the Scholarships at Division II State need to be postmarked by October 1st. That gives you about 2 weeks to get this done.
5) John and Heather Glenn-Hoekstra have begun to come to our school to give lessons to any wind instrument wanting to improve in private lessons. They still have openings to give lessons on Mondays here at the school. If anyone wants more info on private lessons or group lessons, please let me know.
6) David Watlington is running a room in the Haunted House this year, and has asked if we would like to help run it as a fundraiser. This is something that we did a few years ago, but the Middle School has been running it since then. They would need 4 or 5 people to help on the nights of October 17, 18, 19, 24, 25, 26, and 31. Obviously, this is during the St. Louis trip, a couple of football games and the Crockett County competition. We would need parents who are not able to go to these things but would still like to help the band in some way. If you are willing and able, please let me know.

Announcements 9/9/13
1. I put the wrong stadium name on the Itinerary for Friday night. The game is at UT Martin’s stadium, not Crockett County’s. (That’s what I get for trying to multi-task during inservice…)
2. The Grill-out sale ends this week, and all money and tickets need to be returned by Friday so that we can get the meat ordered for the grill out date on Sept. 14th.
3. I am assigning the Percussion and Guard to bring water for this Friday’s game. I will assign a different section every time we need water. This will make sure that we will have it for games and competition days.
4. Remember that there is a booster meeting on Thursday at 6:30. We will be discussing what is needed for the Grill out on Sept 14, logistics for the first competition on Sept 28, and other things.
5. A reminder that the last memorization test for the band is this Thursday over measures 237 – end. The last test (measures 201-237) was not easy, and a few more than normal received Incompletes on that test. They need to make it up in their own time.
6. The Gibson County contest schedule has already been posted, and we will be performing that day (Oct. 6) at 3:15 pm. Full Itinerary will come soon. I will post times of the other contests when I receive them.
7. You can also view last Friday’s field show as part of 101.5 full coverage of the football game. You will have to scroll through the game to get to our show. You can also view Chester County’s show as a part of this coverage. The link is http://www.citylinktv.com/archive/south-gibson-vs-chester-county-83013/
8. In case you forgot, the parents that are signed up for this Friday’s game are: Chaperones – Melissa M, Delynn W, Robin S, Pete S, Brenda G, Cheryl C, Anndrea D, Piper J, Vanessa K. Pit Crew – Roy M, Pete S, Greg G, Brenda G, Alan R. We are going to have 3 buses, and will need at least 2 parents per bus. Also, we have been needing 10 pit crew members that last couple of games, so if you can help out at halftime, it would be much appreciated!
