Notes from the site manager

Schedule

Warm ups start at 8:30, try to have your ensemble arrive between 8:00 - 8:30 to allow them the time to warm up voices and instruments before the rehearsal starts. The rehearsals will end at 4:00, some set up will be required at the end of Wednesday to get the rehearsal spaces ready for the band and orchestras to swap, if you can help with that it would be appreciated.

Stands and Chairs

Chairs will be provided for the rehearsal rooms. We do not have enough music stands for the ensembles. Please bring music stands for your students by following these guidelines.

Band: please bring one stand per student.

Orchestra: bring one stand for each odd numbered seat assignment and one stand for each bass.

For example: TFHS was assigned viola chair #'s 3, 8, and 12. TFHS will bring 1 stand for viola #3. TFHS has a total of 7 odd chair assignments and 1 bass player, TFHS will provide 8 stands.

Parking

Attached is a map of TFHS please refer to the map for each Ensemble entrance into the school.

Parking will be provided for three clinicians in Roper Auditorium. 

Students and directors that drive themselves should park on the west side of Madrona St. or in the parking lot of the LDS church on Maurice St.

Buses will unload at the front of the school in the bus lanes on the north side of Filer Ave., once they have unloaded they will park in the parking lot of the LDS church on Maurice St. 

We have been asked to not use the Bruin's Circle so that it is available for parents to drop off TFHS students during the day.

Entrances and Hallways

We have been asked to limit students walking through the hallways during the event (to prevent disturbances to classes), please have students enter and exit through the doors near their rehearsal spaces and not through the hallways. 

Band please enter the side doors on the west side of Roper auditorium.

Choir please enter the Foyer doors by the Baun Gym on the west side of the school near the student parking lot.

Orchestra enter the south doors near the music hallway near the bruin circle.

Evening Concert

Please remind parents and students that the concert has an admission cost. Adults are $5 and students are $3.

We're excited to host for you again, let me know if you have any questions.

Sincerely,
