Riverfest Reminders!

Mr. Ladd — Tue, 23 Jun 2009 17:25:31 +0000

This post is primarily intended to remind you about our upcoming practices for the “Riverfest” parade performance. We have scheduled practices for all new members, squad leaders, percussion, and Tigerettes from 9am-noon on July 6th through 8th, as well as full band rehearsals on July 9th and July 10th at the same time. The parade performance will be held on the morning of Saturday July 11th.

All new members of the band will need to purchase a Huron band polo shirt to wear for the parade. There is a slight change to the calendar letter that was sent out during the school year. The shirts should be purchased from “Katman Graphics” in Huron, not from the Sandusky Coachers Corner. I’m sorry for the confusion on this issue but you should still have plenty of time to get the shirt for the parade. You can reach Katman by calling (419) 433-3305.
