Here are a few bits of info regarding tomorrow's away game vs Woodland:
We will be meeting at the RHS band room to begin getting ready at 4:30PM central. The buses will leave to head to the game at exactly 5:45PM central. Make plans accordingly to arrive on time. I will be staying from the end of school until we leave, so feel free to stay after school until time to head out.
Remember your BLACK SOCKS and your GLOVES. Also, don't forget to wear your BAND TSHIRT tomorrow for the pep rally!
Remember, you must bring in an away form and sign my group roll sheet before you may leave after the game with someone other than the band bus. Do not forget about this! I will have this roll sheet with me at the game.
Due to limited space on the band bus, we will only be able to carry a limited number of chaperones on the bus. So please get with me early on if you wish to be a chaperone for tomorrow. I have already had one parent sign up for this. Band pups will be riding with us as well, so our bus trips are looking to be pretty cramped all season long.
ALSO: This is Woodland hate week...I promise that I realize this and in the spirit of competition, I love rivalries. HOWEVER, we will NOT EVER find ourselves in a position when we are at the game tomorrow where we are caught taunting, cursing, yelling, fighting, or anything similar with a Woodland fan. I have heard that there have been heated words and discussion from both sides in the past, and I'm sure it will be much of the same tomorrow. We are to conduct ourselves with class, character, and professionalism when we are there and we are to ignore any hate that is directed at us. Lowering ourselves to bickering back and forth with rivals and haters makes us look just as bad as the people who start it. So please, be on your best behavior.
We will be cleaning the band room BEFORE we leave to go to the game so that we won't have to stay a lot later after we return to RHS. Please help us all out and contribute and we can leave much faster than we have been the last two games.
IMPORTANT UPDATE:
For those of you that have not heard yet, Senior Night has been moved from the October 21st home game vs Vincent to the September 30th home game vs Reeltown. If this causes any problems with anyone that may be working the concession stand, please let me know ASAP so that we can switch everything around.
Also: I still have a few students who have not had anyone sign up to work the concession stand for them yet. Remember, it is a $100 fee to get out of working the concession stand, but you need to let me know if this is the route that you will be taking. If you sign up to work for a student, you need only to work one half of a home game. Any extra time that you work can be counted in to your credits for band fees for next year. If you have any questions, feel free to email me at jaron.smith@cleburneschools.net
NEW BUSINESS:
If you would like to purchase a Homecoming TShirt, please come to the office at RHS or come see me, I have order forms. The shirts will be $15 and all orders must be turned in and finalized by next Friday morning, September 16th. The design was created by our very own, Justin Williams.
