If you are not at zero hour the Friday of a game and/or the day before a competition, you may not be allowed to perform at the game and/or competition the next day. You will have to sit in with the pit and perform from the front.

Attendance is very important for the success of the band. Without everyone at the rehearsals, it starts messing with formations as well as the balance of the ensemble.

I know there are times we have to miss for an illness or a family emergency, but be sure to make it to all the other rehearsals. If you miss, it is your responsibility to catch up on what you missed. We will review our sets, but we will not slow down the progress to plug you in.
