2022 Meet the Tigers

8/16/2022

The Marching Tigers performs for the 2022 Meet the Tigers

The Marching Tigers will perform the Star Spangled Banner, School Song, and the first movement to the show this Friday at 6:30 PM in the RCHS stadium.

The call-time for all Marching Tigers is 5:30 PM in the rehearsal hall. Please eat a healthy dinner and drink plenty of water prior to the call-time.

The event host is the athletic department, and is intended to showcase members of the dance team, cheerleaders, fall teams, and the Marching Tigers.

The performance uniform for Meet the Tigers is the summer uniform (department shirt, department shorts, black crew socks, and Drillmaster shoes/Crossovers). Students, please do not wear the old show shirts or section shirts. Those of you that participate in a fall sport (football, cheer leading, dance, tennis...) will wear your sport/cheer uniforms instead of our summer uniform. I anticipate the band will be done by 7-7:30 PM at the latest.

Just a reminder that the RCHS Bands performance & events calendar may be found at https://www.rchsbands.net/2022-2023-calendar.html
