LYMAN FOOTBALL GAME PERFORMANCE:Information regarding the upcoming Lyman High School Marching Band Night, which involves a performance by our 7th and 8th grade Symphonic and Concert Band students!
The date is set for FRIDAY, October 4th, 2019 @ Lyman High School. This is a performance for all 7th and 8th grade band 2 and 3 students – we are looking forward to having an FULL and incredible turnout from all band members, just like last year, for a night of FUN, CRAZINESS, and FOOTBALL!
We are looking forward to performing "Land of 1000 Dances" with the Lyman High School Marching Band. Our band students will receive a preview of the high school band experience, a brief lesson how marching band works, and will get to view Lyman's marching show this year. It's a great event and tradition that helps students set their eyes on the future and what music holds for them!
What to wear: Wear your “Hunter Green” Milwee Band T-Shirt to the game with JEANS and SNEAKERS. Belts are recommended to look nice!
What to bring: Bring your instrument (Tubas, mouthpiece only), Music (Land of 1000), and optionally bring $5-10 for concessions if you are going to get hungry between 6-9:30pm. Otherwise, eat dinner before hand.
Times: Here are more times and details for pick up and drop off times:
Drop off is at Lyman High School is between 5:30pm and 6pm outside the auditorium. We will take attendance and make sure everyone has their instrument at 6pm.
*** FALL SOCIAL Attendees *** – Please FEAR NOT as these times do not conflict with each other. If you attend the Fall Social, you will need to eat pizza or food there, or after school, enjoy yourself at the social until 5:50, and come to Lyman right at 6. You CAN do both! You will just need to do some extra planning with your parents. You should not arrive at Lyman past 6:15pm.
PICK UP – Pick up will be after the game is over, in the auditorium after 9:30pm. Parents will need to park outside the auditorium and come in to check out their student.
Please read concerning early pick up: If you need to make arrangements to pick up your student after our halftime performance, but before the game ends (between 8:30 and 9:30), please send me an email and also send in a note with your student with the details about what time you will be picking them up. I will let you know how pick up early will work on an individual basis.
*CHAPERONES* – We will need about 15-20 official Milwee Chaperones to accompany the band students. Chaperones get to attend the game at no charge (they walk in with the band) but will need to be there the entire time, from 6pm to game end to assist with keeping our little ones safe!
There will be an email sent out with a sign up, first come first serve next week (it will be the same email with the permission form). Please make sure that you are an approved DIVIDEND volunteer now, so you can sign up next week. The dividend sign up process is easy and can be found here.
That’s it for your band update this week! Thank you all so much for your support and LOVE of MUSIC!
Best wishes,
