Possible Playoff Game (10/9)
We do not know if we will be allowed to play at any playoff games home or away. We do not know if the playoff games will be on Fridays or Saturdays. We do suspect, however, that the team will get at least one playoff game at home and we suspect that that game will be on Friday and we suspect that we will be allowed to play at that game.
We will let you know more when we know more!
Ross County Marching Festival (10/4)
RCMF is on for Sunday, October 4! Here are the details for the festival.
- Date/Time - Sunday, October 4 @3pm

Checks payable to Paint Valley Band Boosters and then the Band Boosters will write a large check to Chillicothe Band Boosters.
Last Blast (10/16)
Our Last Blast Concert is currently scheduled for Friday, October 16 in the Elementary School Gym. The student leadership team is working on our seating capacity and we'll have "tickets" to help keep us within state laws for large gatherings. We will also need to follow all regulations on masks and distancing.
Additionally, we are looking to wrap our end-of-season awards banquet into this night. The reason for this is 1) the logistical struggle of creating a banquet with COVID regulations and 2) the ease of not adding additional dates onto the calendar.
We'll attempt to make a secondary "cook out" for just the kids for Senior Awards and to otherwise bookend the season. Keep a look out for that date in the coming weeks.
More details will come out as the leadership team works to refine the event. I will be sure to keep you appraised of key decisions.

See you soon!
