Thursday

Holiday Parade, Nov. 28th

The Holiday Parade is Friday, November 28th at 7 pm and the CHS band members and the LPMS 8th grade band will join together to provide band music for the parade.

Band members are to dress in lights, antlers, santa hats, etc. for the parade. This is a very joyous occasion for the Corvallis community with lots of people and we will be the only live band.

The band will meet at SW 4th and Washington across the street from Baskins Robbins.

Students are reminded to take their instruments home next Wednesday, Nov 26th, from school.

5:30 p Load sousaphones and drums (but not in Mr. Price's truck so he can greet the bands)
6:00 p arrive at parade site
6:15 p warm up, place in ranks and rehearse the music
7:00 p The parade begins and will end at the court house at Jackson and 4th streets.

This year the band will march up 4th street, and periodically pull over to the side and play our set of 4 pieces in each block, then get back into the parade and march to the next block.

We will play the whole parade and it will last about one hour.

After the parade, equipment will be returned to CHS.

Drum line members will hopefully have enough members to pull off some of their routines as we march.

See you Friday, the day after Thanksgiving!

Remember: 'Tis the season...band concerts are Thursday, Dec 11th at CHS and Tuesday, Dec 16th at LPMS, both at 7 PM.
