3:20PM COMPETITION PERFORMANCE
TBA We will march off the field and go back to the buses/equipment truck to put up all equipment. Students will change out of uniforms (Captains and Drum Major will need uniforms for awards ceremony). After we put away all equipment, we will move together as a group back to the stadium to watch other bands perform. We will all sit together in the stands.
8:50PM Drum Major & Captains will need to gather for the Awards Retreat following the Bowdon High School Band performance. You will need to be in FULL UNIFORM.
9:00PM Awards Ceremony
9:45PM Load Buses & Depart for CBHS (make sure you use the restroom before we leave!)
11:00PM Arrive Back at CBHS - all members are dismissed once we have unloaded all equipment from the equipment truck.
Our plan for dinner is that the students will purchase items from the concession stands and eat in the stands. Students will need spending money for concessions.
We will treat this event like it is an “Away Game”, therefore, if students are going to ride home with parents following the competition, we need to have a letter documentation prior to departure of Cherokee Bluff and the parent will need to check-in with Mr. Cantrell or Mr. Lonberger before leaving.
School buses will be bringing students back to Cherokee Bluff around midnight. Students should call/text parents once we depart the competition.
Should you have any concerns or questions, feel free to contact Mr. Cantrell (craig.cantrell@hallco.org).
