Daily Bulletin for 10/15/21

10/15/2021

Band, here is your daily bulletin for 10/15, the last daily bulletin for 2021!

SATURDAY'S REHEARSAL: RUN THE SHOW AS MANY TIMES AS POSSIBLE
LAST TWO PERFORMANCES OF 2021: For many of you, Saturday and Tuesday marks your final performance in the RCHS Marching Tigers. For the rest, this marks the end of a season. Make the best of it! Do the best that you can. Put it all out on the practice field and in the stadiums. Express your gratitude to the bus drivers, music boosters, parents, staff, and student leadership. But most of all, have fun!
EQUIPMENT TURN IN: For those of you that are not In a band during the second term, you will turn In your uniform, lyre, flip folder, school instrument, and clear out your locker following the final performance.
EFFINGHAM MARCHING HEARTS INVITATIONAL: Click HERE for the itinerary. Meals are provided. For lunch, students will receive bandwhiches. Dinner is pizza.
FINAL PERFORMANCE: Click HERE for the Itinerary.
SENIOR SONG: The senior song Is Barndance. Hard copies will be passed out shortly. You may find a version of this tune on SmartMusic.
2022 MARCHING TIGERS LEADERSHIP APPLICATION: Click HERE to fill out the form If you are Interested In any of the following positions: FIELD CONDUCTOR, CAPTAIN, or SECTION LEADER.
2021-22 HONORS WIND ENSEMBLE: It's almost time! If you are interested in auditioning for the Honors Wind, please click HERE and fill out the following form. The Honor Wind Ensemble is the premiere instrumental ensemble at RCHS. This advanced level class is by audition only, and is designed to challenge the most experienced and talented musicians with RCHS.
NOBLE FREEDOM FESTIVAL PARADE: I know this is a long way off, but I wanted to get a sense of who in the Marching Tigers might be available on July 2nd. The Noble Lions Club will host a parade and festival for the Noble Freedom Festival Parade. Who might be available? You would earn 3 hours of personal time for the 2022-23 school year, and likely free food and drinks! Filling out the survey does not commit you to the date. It just gives me an idea who might be available. Click HERE for your availability.
BUS ASSIGNMENTS: This chart will be used for 9/25, 10/2, & 10/16. We have been assigned a truck instead of a van for 10/2. On this day, many of the adults that would travel on the van will travel on the buses instead. Click HERE to view your bus assignment, or scroll to the bottom of this post.
RCHS BANDS REPRESENTATION / STUDENT COUNSEL: Kali Hinterscher, Dacota Anderson-Krome & Evey Mason for the Marching Tigers. Kyle Rennier for the Jazz Band.
PERSONAL DAYS: Many of you performed at the 2021 Memorial Day Ceremony In Olney. Because that was not a grade, (it was in the summer) I awarded each of you 3.0 hours of personal time. You may use this personal time for any rehearsal. You may not use this time for performances, however. Click HERE to view your available personal time.
