  • ATTENTION!!!  We NEED parents to sell Chick-Fil-A and spirit wear while the senior parents are being recognized.  It’s super easy and you do not need to help the whole game, just the end of the 2nd Quarter, Halftime, and 3rd Quarter.  You will miss the show, however missing the show will provide an opportunity for the senior parents to see their kids final performance at Kennett Stadium.

    • Band will clear the field and support senior recognition from the sideline between the 40 year lines.

  • After all the seniors have been recognized the non-senior woodwinds and brass need to move the props back to storage.  Non-senior Front Ensemble will be responsible for cleaning up and putting away the FE equipment.
