We are excited for this Friday, the 6th of October, because we will have our annual 8th grade night! This is a night where 8th grade band members get to experience a Friday night football game for free as a member of our Trojan Band. Our 8th graders will get to play our pre-game performance with the high school members as well as rock out in the stands with them! This is a required event for 8th grade. Please notify me immediately if your child has a conflict with that date. Below is our schedule for the night.

REPORT TIME: 4:45 at the High School Band Room

5 pm – Warm-up and learn pre-game with high school students on band practice field.

5:30 pm – Dinner will be provided by our band boosters as well as free t shirts made especially for your 8th graders to wear that night. We ask that the 8th graders wear blue jeans and shoes that they are able to walk around in. No sandals please.

6:25 pm – Students meet in band room to walk out for Amphitheater performance as well as Pre-Game

7:00 pm – Perform pre-game and National Anthem with high school band in stadium.

7:30 pm – 10:00 pm – Play entire game with high school band in the stands. Watch high school band from track during half time.

This is an incredible night full of fun for our 8th graders. It such an honor to be included with the high school marching band and we hope that you will be there to support your students. If you would like to volunteer with the high school volunteers then you may email me so that I can put you in touch with a high school volunteer coordinator.

I look forward to creating some unforgettable memories with you all next Friday, the 6th!
