FoL Parade Practice Remaining:
Monday, November 21st: 2:30pm - 3:30pm
Fantasy of Lights Parade Info:
Fantasy of Lights Parade is Friday, November 25th at 7pm. Report time at the Howell High School is 5pm. Grand River is closed at 5pm - so you should be entering the M-59 way.
We are dressing up in our uniforms, packing the trailer and buses and leaving by 6pm. Please don't be late.
We don't know our position number in the parade yet.
Students are allowed to wear stuff under their uniform to keep warm (long-johns or under-armor helps out a lot), wear simple "beanie" hats under their marching band hats as long as they are black / dark grey / dark green, and gloves (some students put hand warmers inside their gloves to help keep warm).
Students are also allowed to wear battery operated lights on themselves and their instruments as long as it doesn't interfere with them playing their instrument / their instrument's sound. Please bring your instrument home if you are plan on decorating your instrument to save time. This is completely optional to the student.
We are have a tradition of "FoL After Parade Soup Potluck" - show off your favorite or your / your family's super secret soup/chili recipe. Once the students return from the parade, they will get out of their uniforms and get warmed up with a variety of soups / chili and hot chocolate. Sign-Up Link will be available this weekend - look for the blogpost / Facebook shared link if interested in helping out / bringing something.
