The Military and First Responders Appreciation Event was a success. We were not able to keep the police and firefighter presence, but we did get a flyover from the Phoenix Police helicopter at the start of the game. The temperatures were ridiculously high again….thank you to all the parent volunteers who helped out during the game!!
We have a slight break in our Marching Band action. The next performance will be our first AZMBA Competition at Casa Grande High School (Casa Grande Show – SEP 24th)
Below is a link to the AZMBA website and the Event Calendar (this is our main link to all information about each of the competitions we are schedule to attend)
If you click on the “Casa Grande Show” link on their events page, you will be taken to a page with all of the details for the show, including the Standard Schedule (we perform at 4:25pm), the Logistics Schedule (this schedule dictates when we are allowed to start our “warmup”…..this schedule is used by Ms. Morgan to plan for the “call time” and transportation schedule for the day)
There is also a link on the Casa Grande Show page for the AZMBA Director Packet. This document includes details and information about the entire show and is a good place to understand all the activities/rules/timelines surrounding our participation in the show.
