Saturday, December 21
This will be in full uniform except no shakos; appropriate holiday decorations are acceptable and encouraged (including Santa hats). Front ensemble covers cymbals and the banner. Music is “The Christmas Parade.” It’s been a while since we rehearsed, but nothing about the performance has changed since then.
Itinerary for the day:
9:30 am – Band Room Open (a little earlier than usual, for those that want to do some serious decorating of instruments, etc.)
10:45 am – Depart for Parade Line-up (walking)
11:00 am – Arrive at parade (1st Ave. South & 4th St. SW). Warm-up, set line-up, run sequence
12:00 noon – Parade steps off
The parade goes south on 4th St., then turns twice and comes back north. We will be very near the front of the parade.
We should be back to the band room by about 1:00 pm.
There will be a cookout courtesy of the boosters after we get back, so plan to stay and enjoy some food and fellowship!
