It is down to the final 3 weeks! You've gotten over the hard part, these next three weeks are relatively light. I have this week's schedule now, when I have the schedule for the following weeks, I will let you know.
Monday - Practice like normal
Tuesday - Practice like normal
Wednesday - Practice like normal
Thursday - No Practice, call for the concert is 5:15! (8th grade is just off)
Friday - Last Football Game @Adena and Band Lock-In
Saturday - Halloween Parade. Call time 4:10pm
Lock-In - If you haven't heard of the marching band lock-in, it is after the last football game of the season. It is not required in any sense and if you have ACT in the morning, I would even advise leaving early or not going. Students stay all night at school and can move between the band room, HS Gym, and Restrooms only. Pick up time for the lock-in is 6:00AM so they can go home, sleep, and be back at 4:10 for the Halloween parade. Usually, there are several parents who bring snacks and food and a few help chaperone so that all the rules get followed and no one gets hurt.
Again, let me say that this is not required but many students do stay and have a good time. I'll try to get a permission slip out this week to those interested.
Congratulations on making it through last weekend!
