4. Friday

Parents, please do not bring food or drink to your child during the first or second quarters of the game. We will pass out water for them. If they are getting hungry before 3rd quarter break, they need to eat something before the game. Students must be in position to play at 6:00 left in the 3rd quarter this week. We have less time off this week because several people were late coming back at the last game.

6. Uniforms

If you have any issues with your marching band uniform, please let me know ASAP. We will wear these next week at South Choctaw. Make sure yours is hanging correctly and not wadded up in the trunk of your car or fallen into the bottom of a garment bag. I believe everyone has shoes now - if not, let me know immediately! There are 2 pairs of shoes and 1 uniform hanging in the band room that have been here since picture day....

7. UA Crimson Cavalcade of Bands

This exhibition will be held at Tuscaloosa County HS on the night of Tues., Sept. 24th. This is a required performance. It will start at 5:30 (we will have to be there to warm up before then). There is no cost for admission, so parents and family members, please come! Several of the bands in our area will perform and the Million Dollar Band will end the night. I do not have a detailed itinerary yet, but I will get that to you as soon as they send it to me.

Have a great rest of the week!
