For Band Directors

Directors: if you're moving quickly on contest day, and especially if you have to go straight to another contest or to a football game, please consider our Box Combo Meal Special. You can pre-pay these for $7 per student and we'll have them ready for you whenever you want. Included in the Box Combo Meal: Hamburger or Sausage Wrap or 2 Hot Dogs, plus chips and either bottled water or can drink.

High School Music will have a booth near the warm up areas. They'll have a few emergency replacement items and an instrument repairman for any last minute fixes you might need.

Awards Ceremony/Trophy Presentation

For the awards presentations, please send your Drum Majors and any other officers down to the scoreboard end zone two bands ahead of the scheduled time.

As always, we will have full concessions with everything from our famous Rough Rider hamburgers, hot dogs, smoked sausage wraps, nachos, Frito pies, and snacks available. We also have cold drinks. Kona Ice, Arctic Ape, Kettle Corn, and Five Moon Lemondade will also be on site. These concessions are very important to the success of our contest and we would appreciate any support you could give us by encouraging your students and parents to patronize them.

We will once again have our air conditioned Director's Retreat on the 3rd floor of the press box. We'll have a few snacks and cold drinks on hand and, of course, the air conditioning.
