Dear Wind Ensemble Families,

All luggage will need to be dropped of to the middle school band room on Thursday, April 27, no later than 3:30 p.m.  We are leaving at 7:30 am on Friday, April 28 and want to make the morning of the travel as easy as possible, for everyone.

Band students can bring their luggage to school with them on Thursday morning. Please bring it and your instrument to the band room and place it in the location marked for you. Luggage must be tagged with the student's name and it cannot be lockedYour instrument must be in a case and tagged with your name, but not locked.  Each piece of luggage must be inspected prior to it being loaded onto the bus. Parent volunteers will be performing luggage inspections on Thursday at 4:30 p.m.

All students must pack:
-  their red band T-shirt
-  comfortable shoes for Six Flags, , 
-  appropriate, comfortable clothes for travel,  
-  and all formal uniform attire. Boys must have black shoes, black socks, red bow tie and cummerbund and medals, white tux shirt and studs, and their black jackets.  Girls must have black, closed toe shoes, black knee hi's or stockings, the formal dress and red sash with medals. You may pack your formal concert attire in a garment bag, separate from your luggage, if you wish. The inspection will include making sure all of these items are present.

Other options for luggage drop off on Thursday, 4/27 include:
-  Early morning 7:30 am - 8:00 am - Pull into the bus loop and park behind the MS band room.  The back door will be open for your to bring in luggage. 
-  Mid morning. 11:30 am to 1:00 pm, Mrs. Reed will be in her planning period and able to let you in the back door to the band room to bring in luggage. Pull into the bus loop and park behind the MS band room. 

The students are allowed to bring a small carry on bag for the bus ride, but it will be searched by their chaperone prior to boarding the busses on the morning of departure.

This will be an amazing trip for your band students.

Thank you for your cooperation and support,
