Hello Parents!
I have been asked many questions over the
past two weeks. Here are a few answers and where you can find more,
if desired. (And of course you can always e-mail me with ANY
questions, comments or concerns.)
-
Dark Shorts: Dark Blue, Brown, Black-
with very little if any other colors/writing on it (NEED TO LONG
ENOUGH!)
-
Light colored shirts: May wear tank
tops, if it fit well, and cover all straps- Need to be white or
gray with very little and non-distracting lettering; NO
"Spaghetti" Straps
-
Shoes: Need to be "Running" or
Work-out shoes with good arch support. Because KEDS were cleared
earlier, those are acceptable. No VANS or Puma, or such.
The "NEW" Calendars have been sent
out. Please read through them. There are times in which the band
will rehearse without the color guard, but the times on this
calendar are specific to the color guard. ANY CONFLICTS NEED TO
BE PRESENTED TO ME AT THE MEETING LISTED BELOW.
3- "Mandatory" Parent Meeting
-
Wednesday, July 27th @ 5:30pm
-
If you can not attend this meeting,
please e-mail me ASAP so we can meet and go over the information
together.
-
I look forward to meeting everyone
and getting to know everyone much better!
4- Anyone interested in chaperoning or
Sewing Flags (We need VOLUNTEERS, even to just cut fabric)
Please reply and I will get you in
touch with the correct people. We need many parents with many
different skills. You never know what you may be perfect for.
Let me know!
Anyone interested in marching Rifle
or Saber this fall, the official auditions will take place
during camp on July 26th and July 27th. I understand this is a
change, however, very necessary to give everyone a fair chance
at a weapon position. You may chose to audition on both pieces
or just one.
Anyone who did not attend "Open Gym"
today (July 14), needs to call or contact Taylor Plourde (TP) to
finish sizing. We can not submit the sizes until EVERYONE has
been fully sized. If we wait much longer, we risk not receiving
our uniforms for many football games. PLEASE DO THIS! If you
need her contact information, please feel free to e-mail me, I
can get you that information very quickly.
At Home Football games you can
purchase programs and a few gracious parents have taken it upon
themselves to set up a "MINI PHOTOSHOOT" to have the girls
pictures in the program. This is great for mementos, and perfect
for memory books. WE NEED TOTAL ATTENDANCE ON JULY 25TH. This
will be an all-day event, as stated on the calendar (a huge
bonding moment for the entire guard.)
A huge thank you to all the band
directors for getting this info up on the website and for all
their support and help!
I have met nothing but smiles and
helpfulness since accepting this position. I am so excited to
get this season "officially" underway. If I haven't met you yet,
I look forward to that opportunity. If I have had the pleasure
of meeting you, thank you for the warm welcome!
