To report any absence, you must fill out our Absence Form. Even if you tell someone else that you will be gone, please still fill out the form ASAP so we can get you a sub. Make sure you leave your folder with our librarian if you know you will be gone. We will need to give it to your sub.
Concert Call Time: Call times for concerts are at 7:00PM. If you have a recurring issue that will keep you from making that 7:00PM downbeat, please email [email protected].

Black socks
Long black pants or skirt (ankle length)

Emergency Absences: If you are falling ill or have an emergency the day of the concert, please notify the personnel manager via e-mail ([email protected]) and someone else in your section if possible.
Concert Rain Plan: In the event of poor weather conditions, band members will be notified via e-mail, the band website, and Facebook page by 5:00PM. There are at least three of us who manage these channels, so if you see it in one place, you will likely get the notification in others. It just depends on where we are at the time a decision is made.
WORK CREW: Interested in helping to set up and tear down? Please see Brittany T. (our band manager) if you can arrive a little early and a little later. Our work crew receives compensation at the end of the season.
