1. We have installed 12 lockers in the bandroom. Each one has a section name on it. From 6 to 6:30 students can place their valuable items (phones, iPads, watches, wallets, etc) in the locker that is assigned to their section. They will be watched and locked at 6:30 then reopened after the rehearsal. I am the only one who has the key to these lockers.
2. Students must either have their phones on their body or in these lockers. I am texting all of the students about this prior to the rehearsal tonight.
3. From now on, all items of value will be put into the bandroom since there is a camera outside the bandroom door. We have continual monitoring of who goes in and out of the bandroom with this camera.
4. All luggage and carry-ons will be put into the bandroom next Friday prior to the trip and that room will be locked all day. We will be placing the uniforms in the lecture hall. I am stressing to the students that NO valuables are to be put into the garment bags at any time, EVER.
I will be going over these procedures tonight at the Band Fans meeting.
