As of this posting we have 51 band members planning on going on the Orange Bowl Trip. We cannot do this trip without many more of our members participating. By setting this trip up very early I was hoping we could generate enough excitement to get the entire group to go on this trip. Spreading out the payment schedule along with letting everyone know early also makes it easier for people to plan around this trip.
Participating in this parade is a tremendous opportunity for our school and will change the level and notoriety of our group forever. This past week I received one of the coveted "invitations to apply to the Tournament of Roses Parade." You cannot simply apply to this parade, you need an invitation to apply, which came to us due to our probable participation in the Orange Bowl.
The trip and performance of a lifetime is no exaggeration when you do one of these top events. It is something that every one of us will remember our entire lives. Please, talk it up with other band members, see who is on the list and who isn't. Let's get everyone psyched up so that we can pull this off. My deadline is May 1st to commit. I am going to talk to the Orange Bowl people today to see if they can extend this deadline another week so that we can do it. In addition, if you know anyone who would like to get involved with the marching band we have openings and will train people on the instruments we need and colorguard. We are all very passionate about our marching band! Please spread that excitement and let's get more people into this amazing activity!
