09/26/20 Columbus Field Competition

We hit the road starting this Saturday.  See the Band website Itineraries page.  Please sign up on the Signup-Genius so we know we have enough help on hand in Columbus.

We plan to load the trailers about 9:30 am on Saturday.  There is no game on Friday so we will not have the trailer loaded from the game.  Just a few of us will get it loaded.  If you cannot help with loading on Saturday morning, that will be ok.  We need the help in Columbus.  The Band will load at 10:30 and leave KHS by 11:00 am on Saturday.  The trailers will follow the buses.

At 1:00 pm we arrive in Columbus and after the sack lunch break (remember to bring your sack lunch), the Band will arrive at Pawnee Park (3420 Pawnee Plaza, Columbus, NE 68601) for competition (Hwy81 & 8th St).  We unload the trailer and prepare the pit for competition.  We will need to assist the students in moving the pit equipment to their warm-up area and then to the competition field.  Look for our blue trailer parked Southeast of the field.  Hopefully this part will be the same this year as in previous years, however, look for our blue trailer - we could be located anywhere around that area.

Kearney's performance time is 3:00 pm.  Note that we normally enter the field from the South side of the stadium, so we will be in modified field order (opposite of our UNK order).  Once our performance is complete, we exit the field on the North side of the stadium and move our equipment back to the trailer and load the trailer.

We will leave for Kearney by 4:30 pm and arrive in Kearney around 6:30 pm.  We unload the trailer back in to the Band room when we get to the High School.

It will be a big day and we will do our best to represent Kearney well.

Please remember to wear BLUE.  With all of us in blue, we help add to the uniform look of the band.

Thank you for helping on the Pit Crew Team.  You are appreciated!
