Our Middle School Band will be performing an exciting PRE-GAME show at the RFHS Varsity Football Game on Friday Sept 20th. Just to clarify, this performance is right BEFORE the game starts. This performance is with the bands from RFHS, ECN, MGS, and RFMS, so there will be a lot of kids on that field!
In preparation, there will be a rehearsal at the field that same day. We will take a school bus and leave school at 1:30pm. PARENTS WILL NEED TO PICK STUDENTS UP FROM HINDERS FIELD AT 3:30pm.
Later that night, students need to be at the RFHS S-Curve by 5:30pm. They need to wear their Band shirt, and dress for the weather. I also recommend your student leave their case at home or with you, so you don’t have to return to the band room after the performance. I will have all the flip folders (with music), lyres, and percussion instruments.
Once the students have performed the pre-game show with the Marching Rockets, our students will join the HS Band in the stands to play pep tunes, enjoy the game, and watch the Marching Rockets perform their halftime show. After half-time, parents please come over by the band section in the stands and meet up with your student. The game at Hinders Field starts at 7:00pm. Pre-game will be slightly before that time, and half time will end somewhere around 8:15ish, give or take. Go Rockets!!

Other notes:
- Wear your band shirt outside of your sweatshirt. We want to look in “uniform” on the field.
- RFHS does not allow students to leave the stands until halftime. Use the restroom before you leave home.
- After we play - We are staying until the END of the halftime show, which is approx. 8:15pm. We are watching the entire halftime show together before dismissal.
