HELP NEEDED! MR. SMIGELL OPEN HOUSE WEDS. 5/25 AND MEMORIAL DAY PARADE 5/30 - MARCHING BAND IS BACK!!!!

• HELP NEEDED FOR PARADE AND BOTH PICNICS!

MEMORIAL DAY PARADE (Marching Band) - MONDAY 5/30

The Marching Band is back this year for the Memorial Day Parade and Picnic! We will need help with loading the trailer, bus chaperones and walkers, and setting up and running the picnic. Trailer loader should be available to ride with Mr. Miller and the trailer to help unload equipment. Bus chaperones need to be available to walk in the parade with the band and bring backpacks with cold water bottles, sunscreen, and sugar snacks for any low blood sugar issues. Any student with special medical needs may need a parent to carry their meds. At least one parent to have a first aid kit. Our band will perform at the Cemetery Ceremony and then will proceed back to the band room to change before heading to the picnic.

We will need a few parents to head over to the Rotary Pavilion at Schofield Park during the parade to start setting up the picnic. This would typically be a Sophomore or Junior parent so that the Senior parents can enjoy their last parade. Donations should be dropped off the the pavilion before the start of the picnic.

If you have any questions, please reply to this email or text Jamie at 248-792-1184.
