If you want to see the video from Saturday:  Youtube - search for Josephine Gonzales first video up.

I got together with Ms G today:

Thursday  (10/19) Football at Community Stadium.  This is a pre-game show. Truck load at report time for students.  We need to make sure students know how to load the truck, as they will be loading Friday morning after class.

Friday (10/20) I've only got 26 of 68 covered. Students can take some, but I need more parents!!!  We leave from PAC at 2:30, we won't have time to come back for more students. Rehearsal at Wilson ends 5pm, will return students at that time.

Saturday (10/21): We will feed students bagels and cream cheese/peanut butter at the PAC around 8:30

Truck loading at student report time.    Students will be picked up at 10 by the one bus. We will transport the colorguard and a few extras by car - probably around 15 students. Please let me know if you can transport students. Other cars will be needed for uniform bags and hat boxes. 

If you have students drop off is the Lomas entrance of Manzano. There is limited parking in the truck parking area - maybe four cars. Please make this for colorguard transport vehicles. If you have uniforms please park nearby either on the Chelwood Park street or  in the large parking lot just north of the band truck parking.   I will need a few folks to help to quickly unload instruments and flags and then reload cases. Percussion unload is at the performance area like Valencia. Performance is a timed event - so I need the parents who have been helping on the field again.

We are going to have subway sandwiches for them and parents at our standard truck parking spot (Mike G - can you stake that out for us?) after the performance.  We will want snacks, etc for them later in the day. I need an inventory of what's left of chips, etc from Saturday so we can replenish.  I need someone who can go over to Subway around the corner from Manzano right after the performance to get the subway order. The food has already been paid for.

If you have uniform bags, etc in your car the students will drop performance jackets/hats off during the afternoon. They will need them again for mass march-on at around 4PM, Ms G will advise the kids/parents at lunch.

If you are a nurse/doc and can attend the final show at 4:30 - please call me at 903-2971. First caller gets the gig. I'd like have someone on the field with the students to monitor them - they tend to start fainting from heat and locking their knees.
