Regionals Itinerary
Marching Band Families,
Attached is the itinerary for Regionals (next Wednesday, October 17th). PLEASE, please consider signing up to help; we are especially short on volunteers for all of our evening shifts.
Regionals is a BIG event for the band program, we will host 23 different bands, totaling over 2,000 student performers, and many more audience members. Regionals is also a HUGE fundraiser for the Band Program, and helps keep our out-of-pocket costs down. While I know that our $500 marching band course fee is far from cheap, our big fundraisers such as Regionals, March-a-thon, and the Mattress Fundraiser (coming in the Spring) is what allows us to charge what we do, and offer as many performing opportunities as we do in the band program. Believe it or not, other high schools charge more than we do for Marching Band.
Please consider skipping watching our performance at Regionals (see us at Douglas County, Arapahoe, or STATE instead!), and please help us make the day a big success by working with us. Hosting Regionals is a privilege, and is not something that is guaranteed to be ours to host from year to year. We need to put our best foot forward if we want to continue hosting.
The itinerary for the Arapahoe Marching Invitational will be sent out later this week, as soon as we receive final details from their event coordinators...at this time we don't know when our performance time will be.
Best regards,
Sean Hedding and Sarah Romero
Band Directors
