FANTASY OF LIGHTS PARADE INFO! / CONCERT DEC. 8TH!

Fantasy of Lights Parade - Friday, November 26th

IT'S BACK!!!!  Fantasy of Lights Parade is Friday, November 26th.  We're excited to be marching in this fabulous parade again!

Report time:  4:45 p.m. - you truly do NOT need to be at school before 4:45 (Grand River closes at 5 p.m. from Highlander Way to National St.)
Busses and trailer leave high school for parade:  6 p.m.
Parade starts at 7 p.m.

** Mr. Smigell would like to have as many lights as possible for marching band in the parade this year.  If you can, please get a set of battery operated, holiday lights to put on your uniform and/or instrument for the parade!

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 (as long as they are black / dark grey / dark green) Some students put hand warmers inside their gloves to help keep warm.

We are having hot cocoa and desserts after the parade.  Please sign up to help or make a donation using the BAND app:
