Winter Guard Food donations

Guard parents—
Evaluations are here! This Saturday, January 17th is evaluations. This is a time where they compete in front of the judges to be placed in their competition group. We will be meeting at Copper Hills at 9:00 in the morning and will warm up, review and then get on the buses. We will return between 1:00-1:30 at Copper Hills. We will not be providing lunch on this date due to the early return time. If needed they can bring a small snack with them.
Food for competitions
On competition days we feed the guard lunch. We ask that you sign up to help provide the food so that we can keep the cost down. Please note that we do the best to give them a good lunch but we are at competitions for a long time. They will need to still bring food for dinner or money for concession stand food. (We will be at the competitions from about 12:00 to 10:00 each time). I am working on getting the sign up for food on the blog but until then you can message me with the items you are willing to donate. We will be feeding 24 people for competitions.
Thanks

Nebo Competition Sep 27

Our next event is the Mt. Nebo Competition on Saturday, September 27^th at Payson High School.  Students should wear nice dress clothes for school on the day of all competitions.  (or on day before if competition is on the weekend)  The students will take a bus to this event.  Call time is 10:16am at CHHS Band Room.  Our performance is at 1:15pm.  We will be competing in the 2A Division.  Band Boosters will be providing lunch for students and staff after their performance.  We will be back to the school by around 5:00pm.  Marching students should have clothes to wear under their uniforms (Don’t forget to wear black socks!)  Color Guard students please bring their other uniform pieces as needed.

For those who will be coming to watch, see the link below for directions on how to find the site.  I’ve mapped it starting at CHHS.  Be aware that all the competitions have a $5 entrance fee per person.  If you are coming to watch please wear your Band Parent Shirt.  It would be great if the students could easily see a group of us from the field, cheering them on!  While you are there come by and see if the volunteers need any help.

Volunteers

We are in need of volunteers for our competitions, especially for the Wasatch competition (Oct 7) which is hosted at our school.  On that day, we are running a concession stand and need help throughout the day and night.  Both parents and students may help at the concessions, but students have to perform at 11:45am that day.  So please do NOT sign up students for that time period. You can find the signups on the Volunteers tab at the top of this page. 

Food Donations

Thank you all for helping to fill in our food donations for competitions!  We only have a few spots left open.  We have also now added the Red Rocks trip food to the donation list.  So please look it over and see where you could help.  You do NOT have to be present at a competition to donate.  Your student can bring the food items to the school on that day.  There will be a cooler for perishable items and a box for everything else.   You can find the signups on the Volunteers tab at the top of this page.

Red Rocks tour paperwork

This year the school district has given us an earlier deadline for our travel paperwork to be done.  So we will be signing and notarizing the travel forms on the Preview night (Sep 15).  Each parental consent form must be notarized by the notary we will have on sight in the band room that evening.  Without a notarized form the district will not allow your student to participate in this travel activity.  If you cannot attend this night, then you must print the form and have it notarized yourself.  It must be turned in with a copy of your health insurance card.

Shoe Orders
If you ordered marching shoes, you will need to pay for them at the main office before picking them up.  The cost is $25 and then you give a copy of your receipt to Ms. Johnson to get your shoes.  The shoes are not here yet, but are on their way.  You must have paid and have your shoes before our first performance on Sep 15.

MB Preview Night Sep 15

This is just a quick note to let you know to “save the date” for our marching band Preview Night on September 15^th.  Preview Night is the band’s chance to show off before their competitive season starts.  The whole family is invited to this free event at CHHS Stadium.  On this night we will also be signing and notarizing the travel paperwork for our Red Rocks trip, so please plan on attending.
