Football InformationARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL? It's
fun! Really! Even if you don't like football it's a good time. Band members
are usually on call at 5:00 pm at the band room. Parents (roadies) who
want to help should arrive around 5:45. The band departs around 6:30.
and needs our assistance with equipment transportation, traffic control,
and general support. The band trailer is used to transport the band's
equipment such as drum sets, amplifiers, and other extra instruments.
Equipment needs vary depending on the pieces to be performed. The trailer
goes ahead of the band to get everything set up before they arrive. The
rest of the parents walk with the band along West Street then along the
service road by the FFA animal pens and on to the stadium. The band has
its own set of bleachers which are set up on the track in front of the
main stadium bleachers. The band is given a break during the game and
the kids are allowed to visit the snack bar so they may want to bring
a little cash. Sometimes when we have an early call for a Saturday competition,
the band leaves at half-time so they can go home and get needed rest.
