HOMECOMING AND SENIOR
NIGHT CELEBRATION
|
|
The band (minus the seniors) will be doing the Homecoming parade
tomorrow.
Students need to be at the Food Lion parking lot at 4:55 with
instruments, but no cases. Those students who need to go by the school to
get large instruments should plan on doing so by 4:30. There will be a
shuttle bus making trips from the school (probably the Senior lot) to Food
Lion starting at 4:30. If you need to ride the shuttle plan on being at
the school by 4:30. Students should wear Dinkles, jeans, and anything on
top (sweatshirt, jacket, etc.) to keep warm. The parade starts at 5:15.
Laura Duncan Road will be closed while the parade is going on.
The students will stay at school after the parade and dress for the
football game around 6:00.
Reminder: The band will perform the whole show following the Homecoming
ceremony during half-time. The band will then do our Senior recognition.
After the game there will be a reception honoring our seniors in the gym
lobby. All band students and families are invited to attend the reception. |
