Attention Parents!

– Next Thursday will be a rehearsal at Fulton Field, with a preview of our contest show beginning at 8 PM.

– Next Friday (9/17) is our 100th anniversary concert, downtown Lancaster. The concert is free and open to the public. We will begin with a short parade starting at Mt. Pleasant Elementary School at 6 PM.

– We encourage our parents and band supporters to cheer loudly and enjoy the band from the stands. Due to safety, limited space, and athletic department rules, adults with the band must have a chaperone or equipment badge.

– IMPORTANT – Please do not park on either side of the fire lane at any time. This is the drive that loops around directly to the band room and to the front of the GAC entrance. Parents are asked to find a designated parking spot to drop off or pick up your son/daughter.
