Looking forward to seeing the Sea of Purple and the Marching Dons at Chabot College on Saturday. Make sure your child is familiar with report times for morning and afternoon responsibilities and feel free to ask them if "they have everything they need to be successful
today!"
A look ahead - The itinerary for the Foothill band review will be posted on-line shortly, but for your planning purposes on 10/22, practice will be from 12-5. Students are to be dropped off at Foothill High School in uniform no later than 7:29 pm and the band performs at 10:00 pm There are no buses for this event-all students are to arrange transportation to and from the competition. If you are planning on attending the field show, it starts at 4:30. Arrive early-seating will likely be at capacity.
There is a fee to park on campus at Foothill for the event so feel free to park in nearby neighborhoods as signs and distance allow.
Blue painters tape...got any? We use blue painters tape to line the marching field with markers to help us clean our drill. If you have any around the house from a painting project, please send in with your child and we'll take it off of your hands! Thanks a lot!
