SOME NOTES:
Students must follow all rules and directions given by directors, staff members, and chaperones. Failure to do so will result in sitting with chaperones for the day as well as parent contact.
All students are to stay together as a group throughout the day.
Students may bring a jacket to wear if needed while not performing. HOWEVER, students must stay in their marching pants and show shirt throughout the day when we are not performing.
You are representing our school and community! Be on your best behavior.
Be respectful to all other schools and performers.
Cell phones are NOT to be out in the middle of performances!
Students who are coming from cross country and meeting us at RRHS are to communicate with Mr. Dubbs the week of POB confirming arrival time and location at the stadium.
