Schedule for 10/31 to 11/4
All week at lunch - eat and then attend your sectional. Schedule is on the board.
Guard - bring your uniform on Tuesday. All guard members' uniforms must be the same. We are graded on uniformity. Ask Mariyah any questions.
Tuesday and Thursday afternoonsALL 6th period students need to attend the after school class from 3-5pm. Most 6th period students need the credit going into the 1st quarter grade. Dress appropriately for marching.
Friday --- practice from 1:00 – 5 pm. Bring your lunch, refrigerator & microwave available. BE ON TIME!!!! Dress appropriately for marching.
After rehearsal - Put instrument in case; pick up shako box from ensemble room. Take both to the main room and follow the directions of the shako and instrument crew trailer. It is YOUR responsibility to make sure these items are in the proper place for the crew to load.
Percussion & Guard – make sure your harness, stand, flag, ID plus drum get onto the trailer.
Students need to pay their $20.00 for food. A receipt is given. The boosters serve the students a snack pre-performance and hot lunch post-performance. To make it work EVERY student must contribute. It is part of being in the group. If you plan to use your Brewfest funds for this fee, please let Mrs. Wilmer know, otherwise, please pay Mrs. Wilmer ASAP! Checks made payable to RHS Music Boosters.
Each student is assigned a job inside or outside the trailer helping get the equipment and group ready, putting items away correctly afterwards, or helping the boosters with food. The procedure should be efficient and quiet. Please check the schedule carefully for departure time and clothing information.
Saturday – Competition Day!!
All --Bring a change of clothes including DEODORANT, socks & shoes, and extra black socks in a separate bag AND bring a place to put your marching shoes that is NOT your garment bag. I suggest your shoe box. Come dressed in your bibbers, black socks and marching shoes. Your gauntlets are in your shako box. Your gloves & baldrick are in your garment bag. Put your name on your garment bag.
Guard – come in uniform with hair done.

6:55am --- Leave RHS parking lot. We are on a tight schedule & will not wait.
8am (approx.) --- arrive at the bus parking lot. Seniors & inside trailer crew exit bus first & go to their job positions. Remaining students get in line to pick up garment bag, instrument and then shako box. Students must follow directions of crews once you receive your garment bag, instrument and shako box.

Stand in line to return plumes, then get instrument case and shako box. Once instruments and shakos are in boxes, give to crew to place in trailer. Garment bags will be issued. Gentlemen stay at the trailer while the ladies go back to the bus to change unless I hear otherwise from the school. Once they are back, the men go to the bus to change. Crews that help set up the pop ups, tables, water and the boosters do that job first before changing.
