Finals and Festivus

10/28/2017

 
Our final competition is Sunday, November 12 at J. Birney Crum Stadium in Allentown. Tickets will be sold directly through Cavalcade's website. I will not know our performance time or schedule until November 6th or 7th. I won't officially know our status as a Yankee band (open or A) until then either. Please plan to block out the whole day.  Some years our report time to KHS has been as early as 5 am.   Let's all keep out fingers crossed for a later time!

Festivus will be held on Monday, November 13th at 6:30pm in the KHS Cafeteria.

Please use the link below to RSVP to Festivus no later than Friday, November 3rd.

Please be sure to specify your payment method and turn in your payment in en envelope clearly marked with your student's name to Mrs. Mancuso no later than Friday, November 3rd.  The cost of Festivus is $11 per person attending (including Marching Band Members).  Please see Mrs. Mancuso if there are any financial hardship issues.

Please check your email for a spreadsheet of student accounts.  Please consider using any remaining balances in your student accounts to pay for Festivus, especially seniors.

Please note that Finals Tickets (information will be coming at a later date) can no longer be paid for using students accounts.  Beginning this year, the Cavalcade of Bands is offering tickets for purchase on line and at the gate.  All seating for Finals will be general admission.
