Announcements
1. Families may order more than one of the black competition show shirts. These are often worn when we compete to show who you are there to support! We do a new design each year to fit the new theme of the Competition Show. This year, as released in my video update, the theme is "Soar." We do not have a design for this yet, so we are just getting our numbers together.
2. Freshman/new members will need to order all of the attire items. Returning members may not need to order any if all of their items like shoes and shirts still fit and are in good working condition.
3. Below the Contact Information Form, there are other medical related forms that we complete each year to be as thorough as possible in accounting for all student medical needs.
*Form 08-EVERYONE should complete this form so that we can quickly help spot treat minor ailments on the spot for kids if they happen at a rehearsal or event. This is the Over-the-Counter release form. Students who attended the Disney trip do NOT need to complete this again unless something has changed for you.
The other form is only needed to be completed if they apply to a particular student. These are not required if there are no additional medications that students must carry on them during a rehearsal, such as an EPI-pen or an asthma inhaler.
4. The Physical form is there just to make sure that there is a current physical on file with the Avon Local School District. Given the situations with doctor visits being limited in the pandemic, this is not something you need to rush out and do right away. Physicals are good for a full 365 days before they need to be renewed. Most marching band students renew their physicals in July or August anyways. Physical forms may be turned in to the AHS Athletics Office during the school year, or to Mr. Jacobs over the summer.

NOTE: Your child's physical only needs to be up to date and on file with Avon Local Schools within one calendar year.
Example: many students who take their physical for spring sports will not need to do this again for Fall 2023 Marching Band.
