Hayfield High School Band Msg #6...1st Home Football Game Change & Tag Day Weather Plan...IMPORTANT...URGENT!!!

Band Booster Family,

First of all, tomorrow’s 1^st home game vs Jeb Stuart has been moved to Wakefield High School in Arlington, VA! Report time for travel band is 5:15pm in the Band Room--no uniforms. Busses plan to return about 10:30pm @ Hayfield. Mr. Burke is only asking for 2 bus chaperones. He can probably take up to 4. So, the first 4 volunteers to e-mail me will be taken. Everyone else that wants to go, will need to find their own transportation.

NOTE: Everyone that volunteered for the 1^st home game no longer needs to volunteer. I need everyone that volunteered either by e-mail or Sign-Up Genius to reply to me confirming that they understand they no longer need to volunteer for the 1^st game.

Secondly, here is the Tag Day weather plan:

- Nice day, meet in Band Room @ 0800 with students wearing band uniforms with instruments & volunteers being groggy;)

- Only rain, meet in Band Room @ 0800 with students wearing band t-shirt without instruments & volunteers being groggy & soggy…I crack myself upJ

- If there are weather alerts/advisories, tornadoes, lightning, and so on, we'll postpone or cancel...to be determined

NOTE: Either late Friday or early Saturday, Mr. Burke will make the call, let me know, I’ll send out an e-mail, & have Band webpage updated with decision if postponed or cancelled as soon as possible

Again, thank you for your flexibility, patience, & understanding! With the economy & other factors, my Tag Day goal for this year is $10,000. If we make more, then that will be a blessing.

Based on the rest of the week, attached is the most current Excel spreadsheet with volunteers to include those that I’ve noted on Sign-Up Genius. We still need a few volunteer slots filled. Please see either Sign-Up Genius (http://signupgenius.com/go/hssband1 ) or the attached Excel spreadsheet. Hope to see you all @ multiple events to support & cheer on our students.

Finally, our students REALLY NEED YOU! As most teenagers, they will NEVER admit this. Your VOLUNTEERISM is ESSENTIAL to THEIR SUCCESS!!! Additionally, they really do APPRECIATE seeing you @ their various events cheering for them. I hope to see ALL the parents volunteering @ various events throughout the year: ) If there is ANYTHING I can do or answer, please let me know. Please keep the following links for future reference:
