Announcements
Schedule for Week:
First, there will be NO stadium seat install tonight. No list has been provided and these may be installed Saturday before the game. Parents may be needed on Saturday, keep posted.
- Thursday: Mall Rehearsal 5:45-8:15 pm. Wear Red shirts.
- Friday: 6:00 pm Students must be at the “secret” place in full uniform, warming up in their sections.
- 6:25 pm: We will be playing for the South Park block party.
- 6:45 pm: We will be entering the stadium, since it is senior night
- The band trailer will be loaded immediately after the game, so students should not be in a hurry to leave the band room until their instrument is loaded. It is the students responsibility to insure that their instrument is loaded on the trailer.
Important Reminder: Make sure students have all of the uniform parts (cords, gloves, and real socks), as the uniform room will be locked and nothing will be available. Check your uniform now. If you need replacement cords, etc, they must be paid for and picked up during school hours Thursday or Friday. Students will need their white ball caps to wear while the band is in the bleechers, otherwise, they will have to wear the band hat.
- Saturday: Be in the band room at 8:00 am in travel uniform (band pants, white socks, 2010 band shirt (or previous blue shirt for upper classmen), with your band jacket (WV Overlay), white gloves, band hat, and ball cap.
- Students must be in their bus groups at 8:15am. Buses will pull out at 8:30 am, sharp.
- We plan to arrive in Clarksburg around 9:30 am.
- The parade begins around 10:30 am.
- The band should be returning to Morgantown around 12:45 to 1:00 pm.
Upon our return to Morgantown on Saturday, the students working the WVU game seat rentals will put their uniforms and belongs in the band room, and board the bus to the stadium. (This is the only game there is a bus to the stadium, FYI).
Remember, if you are working the stadium seats at this or any future game, please send an email to WVUSeats@gmail.com, so the stadium seat committee can have an accurate count. Should you be unable to work your game, it is your responsiblity to trade games with someone, and let the stadium committee know at the above address. This is an easy fundraiser, as you only have to do and install or uninstall and work one game.
Next Week: There will be no mall rehearsal Monday, due to labor day.
- Thursday: Mall rehearsal 5:45-8:15pm. Wear red shirts.
