Although for most who attend, football games are a great time to socialize, our band students have worked extremely hard to prepare for their performance before, during and after, on the field and in the stands. They are there to support our team, and it takes concentration, attention, and effort. To respect this, and to ensure their safety as well as allow our directors, drum majors, and chaperones to work effectively, we request that all visits to the band section of the stands be limited to emergencies only.
We love to see band alumni, meet parents, etc., but ask that this be done after the final playing of the "Alma Mater" and the band is dismissed. Various people coming and going in the stands are distracting and make it hard for everyone to focus. In addition, our band is bigger than ever (hooray!) and COMPLETELY FILLS the two sections allotted us; this means that, besides the families of our band directors, there is no seating in the band section available. Please honor your student's commitment and dedication, and understand that we are acting for their safety and comfort.
Thank you!!
