Thanks to everyone who helped yesterday. We were rated Excellent!

Two more weeks folks - hold on and then we can relax a little!!!! Last event for football season is 10/28.

Homecoming is Thursday night so football is on. Band truck will need to be loaded when kids are asked to show up. The kids are doing the majority of the work themselves, but we need parents to help.

There is lots to get on the field, and several of our standard helpers are traveling. Even if you can't do heavy stuff, there is a lot of light things that (props) would if you could help with would free up another parent who can do the heavy things.

Then POB - next Saturday.  Know that Elizabeth Robison and Denise Tomlin need your thanks - they are our POB reps and will be working Saturday from 5:30 am until the last person leaves.

Ticket, picture and pin/etc plus forms have to be turned into the band room by tomorrow (Monday 10/17/17) afternoon. Elizabeth Robison will be checking the box in the band room and those numbers will determine how much pictures will cost (we have to have at least 20 ordered to get the reduced price of $10) and tickets will cost $10 at the POB gate (all non band students have to have tickets for POB they are now only $6) attached is the form.

Dawn is taking care of food - lunch will be from Podrells, with special lunches for Ms G and our students with special dietary needs. Please let me know if your student is one of those so we can make sure they are taken care of. There will also be food for our volunteer parents. Snacks will be available in the afternoon.  Performance is at 11:15 so lunch will be scheduled for 11:30.  Last year the kids snacked before lunch and we had lots of leftovers - try to keep them from munching.

These are the confirmed volunteer times and car poolers I've received - sorry guys if you've mentioned something to me verbally - don't assume I've remembered it. Everything starts to run together at this point in the season. PLEASE send me an email.

Teresa - I know you and your Mom are going to work, but can't remember when......

Band tailgate area - Betty Lujan

Right after POB - APS marching competition  10/25.

What we need in order of importance:  Band students transported around 4:45 (time will be firmed up soon) and gear on field for performance. After they perform - we will feed the kids pizza - can I get a volunteer to organize that.

Volunteers to help Ms G with checking other bands in, guides for bands and runners for judges scores. This will start around 4 - and go till the end.

Volunteers at the end of the night to help clean up the stadium. We need at least 10 adults and hopefully we can have students to help.

We can set up a table to sell pre-packaged food and drinks so if we had a couple folks who maybe can't walk a lot to run the food table. No hot food, kind of like the school's desert tables at some of our concerts.
