It was a great first day at school. The Marching Rockets got outside and played some tunes. The Marching Rockets are away this week to support our CNE Rockets as they take on the Cougars of Clark Montesori at Withrow High School On Friday.
What you need to know:
- Friday-we will depart as close to 5:30 as possible. It might be helpful for kids to arrive in uniforms.
- Students should eat before they arrive. They will have a break during 3rd quarter to visit the restroom and concession stand.
- Boosters will provide water during the first quarter and after halftime.
- The CNE Band uniform includes the student providing long black socks, blue band shirt, and long hair tied up and tucked into the band hat. There are quite a few members that still owe for their band shoes-$25.00 payable to CNE Band Boosters.
- Students should eat before they arrive. They will have a break during 3rd quarter to visit the restroom and concession stand.
- It appears that most of the admission for sporting events are going cashless. Band members do not need tickets.
- Here is the link for the CNE Tickets. There are season tickets available also.
- Here is the link for Ohio Band Day Tickets on September 4. Half price tickets (Band members do not need tickets) Promo code BANDS
- Masks may be required at times for some events. Students should plan on bringing a mask with them to all performances. I will have extra masks available for emergencies. Currently, we will be wearing masks on buses.
- We have added two exciting performances to our schedule. The Marching Rockets will be performing at the Ohio State University Marching Band Skull Session before the Ohio State vs. Maryland football game on Saturday, October 9. The Skull Session originally served as a final music rehearsal for the band prior to their performance on the field, but has evolved into one of the most anticipated game day traditions at The Ohio State University. They invite one high school band to perform each game. I applied four years ago and this is our year.
We have also been invited to perform at the opening of the Ohio Association of Secondary School Administrators fall conference on October 4. This is a professional development day for CNE.
