10/11/19 Football Halftime


Great job crew on last Saturday in Grand Island.  It went very well.  Great teamwork.  Thank you to each one of you for supporting the Band by helping on the Pit Crew.

This Friday game plan will be the same as the last game.

If you have not signed up on Signup Genius, please do so for each game and performance so that we know we have enough help to make it all work ok.

Check the post from the first game (8/30/19) for all the extra details.

Here is the short version.
+ 5:20 pm - Trailer at UNK Fine Arts- unload instruments (percussion & low brass).

+ 5:50 pm - Trailer moves to Foster Field - at North end - setup percussion stands, rope, etc. in the stands  - Unload the Trailer - we need every's help if possible.

+ Watch the 1st Quarter and up to the last 5 minutes of the 2nd Quarter of the game.

+ 5:00 minutes left in the 2nd Quarter, we need everyone back at the trailer to prepare for Halftime.

+ 2:00 minutes left, we move onto the side of the field. 

+ Halftime - move everything in place, the Band does their show, then move everything off ASAP.

+ Reload everything back into the trailer.
+ Watch the rest of the game.

+ At the end of the game, please check the grandstand where the Band is to make sure all the percussion and sousaphone stands have been picked up and taken back to the trailer ASAP.  Also make sure the rope and post/bracket come back to the trailer too.  The two ladders need to go inside the fenced area under the grandstand.

+ Load all instruments back into the trailer back at Fine Arts when the Band gets there.

+ We will NOT unload the trailer at the High School.  We will be traveling to Lincoln on Saturday.  See the 10/12 Saturday blog entry for details.

Remember to Wear BLUE.

Thank you for supporting the Band.  We are glad you're on the team.
