Winter  drumline auditions will be held:

Tuesday night – 5pm until finish (no later than 9pm)

Thursday night – 6pm for anyone that can’t make it Tuesday

Each Tryout will last about 15 minutes.  No one is required to stay until 9pm and are free to leave after the individual tryout.  If you’ve not signed up for a  time slot, you can still tryout but you may have to wait for an open time.  Floor positions will be given first to those planning to march the 2013 Marching Season Drumline, then any open spots will be filled subsequently.

Winterguard auditions will be held at a later date to be announced.  Those WINTER spots will only be filled by anyone interested in marching Colorguard for the 2013 Marching Season.

At ISSMA District Marching Band Contest at Jasper Football Stadium located on Jasper Middle School grounds in Jasper, IN on September 29, 2012.

Times indicated on this schedule are on Central Standard Time. (Jasper is on Eastern Standard Time.)

If you are new to band this year, the performance is not at the High School, but at the football field which is on 2nd Street. The area near the stadium is closed off for the contest so you will need to park a little far and then walk to the stadium. There are signs all around to help direct you to parking areas. Please do NOT park at the mini-golf / go-cart place as they have been known to tow people in the past.

Also, an excellent post on Indiana Marching by Randy Akers , the Director at Heritage Hills that EVERYONE, students, parents and staff, should read. These are things to keep in mind as you watch bands this Saturday. http://www.indianamarching.com/community/forums/index.php?topic=12209.0

Also, please read this link http://www.indianamarching.com/features/2011/10/06/a-laymans-guide-to-issma-events/ – above all DO NOT POST SCORES.

Per ISSMA

It is also important to note, ISSMA policy prohibits scores from being released publicly, including in newspapers, broadcast media, online, or otherwise. Scores are to be used for evaluation purposes only and are provided only to unit directors at the conclusion of all events.

ISSMA events are District, Regional, Semi-State and State

As a refresher, there are no placements at Districts. You are either rated a Gold, Silver, Bronze or participation. If a band achieves a Gold, they go on to Regional Competition.

Also, please remember that everyone must keep quiet once we are in the parking area at District. My Hyneman will go over all the rules with the marchers but if, as a parent, you stop by the parking area, please remember that quiet rules are in effect for the duration we are there as we can be penalized for extraneous noise.

The Schedule

Band members, instructors and designated chaperones ONLY will ride bus to and from events.

Again, all times on this schedule are Princeton Time

No one is dismissed until ALL equipment is unloaded and all buses are clean.

If you will be traveling from the event other than by school bus, I must have a note from a parent and they must be present for your dismissal. You may not leave with anyone other than your parental unit. NO EXCEPTIONS.

Here is the Class C performance schedule. Again all times are Princeton Time
