Since we have students attending two high schools it is an expectation for each student to attend one of the high school games listed below with the band.  This is a great opportunity to become familiar with the high school band program, students, and directors. 

Since we may not be able to schedule a Newman Smith game this year, everyone should plan on attending the Creekview game on Thursday, Oct. 14.

Students who live in the Newman Smith zone will go to the Newman Smith game and those who live in the Creekview zone will go to the Creekview game.  YOU MAY GO TO BOTH.

In general, students who went to Sheffield will go to Newman Smith and students who went to Furneaux and Thompson will go to Creekview.  Mr. Black can tell you where you are zoned for high school. 
 
Every student is expected to attend one of these games.  Below is a general timeline for each.

Newman Smith Varsity Football Game
Date:  to be announced
Meet time:  6:45pm
Location:  Standridge Stadium

Students in the band are admitted free.  Anyone else will have to purchase a ticket.  Tickets at the game cost $7.
