Dear Marching Band Parents,
WOW! What a great turn out of parents Saturday night to help our students with their instruments and props for the show. We will have double the fun this coming Saturday for the band’s “Double Header.” If you will be following the band to Charlotte and coming to the competitions- WE NEED YOU! Please see the link below to sign up for either helping push an instrument or help with a prop.
It takes over 25 people to help with equipment and props for each competition.
Some props are quite cumbersome and heavy – DAD’s we NEED YOU for these jobs! Some Dad’s are especially needed for the heavier equipment like the 2 sets of speakers and the synthesizer cart.
MOM’S- pushing/pulling some of the instruments is less strenuous.
If there are any Dad’s who are not coming to the competitions, PLEASE sign up to help load the semi at Athens. That way it’s not as long of a day for the dads that are helping with Pit Crew in Charlotte because we will be unloading and loading 2 1/2 times that day!
A big thank you goes out to all those who helped at Western Alamance! Troy Wregglesworth, Larry Moore, John Schroedl, Greg & Cortney Cowan, Jim Major, Tyrone Williamson Sr., Diana Colley, Beth Williams, Ross & Damia Tabachow, Kevin Fischer, Bob & Ashley Van Wormer, Zofia Pruchnik, Chris & Agnieszka Blanchard, Thao Beck, Mandy & Chris Patterson, Janice Broniak, Kelly Hodgins, and Jennifer Galvin. Please forgive me if we forgot to mention anyone’s name (there was a lot to keep up with 🙂
but please know that you are appreciated and needed!
Hope you can help this weekend!
Many thanks,
Suzanne & Dee
