Braves Game Details

Dear Parents,

If your child is attending the Braves game trip this coming Monday, September 17, I wanted to fill you in on several important details:

First, the students will receive the tickets for their family and friends tomorrow. I have reiterated the importance of them being responsible with these tickets, but PLEASE make sure you get the tickets from them tomorrow as soon as they get home from school, and that you received the correct amount of tickets. Your child's ticket will NOT be included, as their ticket will stay with their chaperone group and will be given to your child after they perform. 

Check Out Procedures: if you are planning to check out your child at the designated check out time (8:30), you will need to be sure of a couple of things; one, you may pick up your child's bookbag from Durham any time from 4:30-5:15. We do not have room on the buses for the bookbags, nor do they allow them in the stadium. If you do not pick up your child's bookbag from during that tiem, you will have to wait to come back to Durham at approximately 10pm when we arrive back to the school from the stadium. Second, you would need to take your child's instrument as soon as they are done performing to your vehicle, as they cannot bring them into the stadium as well and the buses will be locked after the performance. Our performance is from 6:30- 6:45-ish, so there should not be a problem getting the instrument back to your car before the game starts at 7:35. :)

Students who are NOT being checked out and staying for the duration of the trip will put their instrument back on the bus after the performance, and will ride the bus back to Durham where they can drop off their instrument and grab their bookbag upon leaving the school. ALL STUDENTS MUST HAVE A RIDE BY 10PM!

Students should receive their t-shirt for the performance by the end of the week. They will wear the performance t-shirt and jeans to school on Monday for the performance.

Again, our performance at the Battery has been moved to 6:30pm! The Battery is open to anyone (you don't have to have a ticket to enter the Battery). so please come and support your child's performance! 

I hope this answers any questions you may have! Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns.
