10/15/22 Vermillion, SD - Quad-State Competition
On Saturday, Oct. 15, 2022, we travel to Vermillion, South Dakota for the Quad-State Competition.
We load at 10:30 am at KHS and depart at 11:00 which will get us to Vermillon by 4:00 pm.
The pit trailers park in lot 39 on the South side of the Sports Complex and the buses park in lot 36 to the South of the pit trailers. Look for our blue trailer, that’s the best I can recommend until we get there. Once we get our staging area established, we will unload the trailers and prep for the Band’s warmup and performance.
The competition field is in the Dakota Dome ( 1101 N. Dakota St. Vermillion, SD 57069). Our warmup is at 7:15 pm and we perform at 8:15 pm. After our performance, we will load up the trailers. Awards are at 9:00 pm and at 10:00 we leave for Kearney and arrive about 2:00 am.
Please be sure to sign up on the Sign Up Genius (see the Band website for links). We need to know who will be there so we are sure to have sufficient help.
Thank you for supporting the Band by helping on the Pit Crew. You are appreciated!
Remember to wear BLUE.

10/14/22 Football Game & Halftime
This week's football game and halftime will run similar to the last game, only an hour earlier.
We need your help on the Pit Crew for the Friday, October 14, 2022 Football Game Halftime.
We unload instruments at the trailer on the South side of the Library at UNK (East of Fine Arts) at 4:30 pm.
Then we move the trailer to the North end of Foster Field at UNK and unload the Front Ensemble equipment. This happens right away at about 5:00 pm, before pregame.
Then you can watch most of the first half. At 5:00 minutes before halftime, meet at the trailer at the North end of the field to prepare for halftime.
After halftime we reload the percussion equipment back in to the trailer.
After the game please make sure all tuba stands, all percussion stands, and the rope come back to the trailer (which will be parked on the south side of CT Ryan library).
Check back here for any changes or updated information. Remember to wear BLUE!
Contact Ed Uden 308-440-0694 with questions. See the 9/23/22 post for additional details.
Thank you for being part of the Pit Crew!
