Game Day Week!!!! So very excited for our first home game performance! There is a lot for us to cover in our rehearsals in this very short week. A reminder there is no morning rehearsal on Friday, however we will march so be prepared on the lot at 7:40 AM for a run-through of our performance material for the game.
September 9 – Home Football vs BVN This is a review of information shared last week – please make sure you have read it carefully so you are prepared for Friday! Our first home football game performance! Students who purchased a pre-game meal plan can eat beginning at 4:30 PM. All students need to be dressed and ready to perform by 5:30 PM. Our full schedule can be found HERE. The band parades from the BVW PAC out the side commons doors and holds a mini-pep rally at the before leading the team and cheerleaders to the stadium. They perform Pre-Game and then portions of our competition show at halftime. It is a lot to learn and a lot of fun to watch! Parents are ALWAYS welcome to come watch and join in what is a terrific West Family Event on Football Fridays! September 15 Rehearsal & Performing Arts Showcase As part of our rehearsal that evening, we will be combining to perform with our fellow Performing Arts Department members – choir, debate, and orchestra! Following the Showcase performance, we will give a rehearsal / run-through of our competition show in the Stadium. Additional details coming in next week’s update. For our band students – it will be a normal Thursday timeline. September 24 Kansas City Championships As we head into next week we will share our full schedule and information to help new families understand the importance and excitement that comes with attending our marching festivals! For planning purposes, our schedule that day will be a rehearsal that begins at 9 AM. We travel from BV West to Blue Springs South HS. Our first performance is at 2:00 PM. We will perform again in the evening (the later the better – meaning it went very well!) These are long days, but a lot of down time, opportunities to see other bands, and lots of food and family bonding time!
