-Next week - Oct. 13 - we will be going to a new contest. East Central High School. We have never been there. It's in Indiana close to Lawrenceburg, not far from Cincinnati. We don't have the times yet.

-There should be no jewelry worn with your uniform.

-DO NOT PLAY ANY INSTRUMENT IN THE BUS AREA. You can only play in the warm-up area when I tell you. Some contests we go to deduct points if you make any noise in the bus area.

-During the awards ceremony, stay together as a group until all the awards are over - no matter how well we do.

-You must obey the chaperones at all times. Remember - they are volunteers and are doing what is asked of them. If you need a conflict resolved, see Mr. Hoover privately.

-Students are required to ride the buses to and from the contests. If you are not riding the bus home, find your bus chaperone personally after everything is packed and let him/her know. Do not tell them earlier, and do not have someone else do it. Also - you are excused to your parents, not someone else.

- Good luck!!!!!!
