10/8/16 - Bellevue East Competition

Thank you to all who helped with the GI competition.  Well done.

Here is the plan for the Omaha trip.

If you are available, we will load the trailer on Friday 10/7/16 at 3:30 pm.

Then, the buses and trailers leave KHS at 6:00 am on Saturday 10/8/16.

We arrive at the Bellevue East stadium at 9:00 am.  This is when we need the crew at the trailer to help unload and get ready.  We need to get the battery and sousaphones out and get the pit equipment ready as well as the barrels.  According to the map, the truck parking is on the East side of their High School building.  (GPS coordinates:  41.14541, -95.902368)

The Band goes to their warm up sequence at 10:00 and performs at 11:00 am.  We will be moving equipment into place as needed and then be ready for their performance.  This is a timed performance, so we have 15 minutes to get on the field, do the show and get off the field.

Once their performance is over, we will load everything back on to the trailer.  Awards are at 1:00 pm so that is when we find out if we perform again.  If we perform again, then we will discuss schedules and when we need to get back together later in the afternoon to be ready.  If we happen to not perform again, then we are done until we get home to unload.

After awards, the Band is going to the mall for lunch.  The Finals then start at 3:30 pm.  If we perform, we will have our times from the Directors and will know when we need to be back at the trailer and when we need to be ready.

This is a different type of competition than we have been at before, so thank you for your flexibility and teamwork.  We need all the help we can get for these competitions with everything we are moving on and off the field quickly. 
Thank you for helping and know that you are appreciated!
