⚜️THANK YOU FOR VISTA PERFORMANCE ⚜️

THANK YOU!!  The show at Vista High School went so much smoother because of all the folks that stepped up and volunteered as Roadies, Uniform, Hair, Snack, Photographer and Bus Chaperone volunteers.  It takes a community to help our students do what they love, and we want to give a huge shout out to all of YOU!

⚜️Donation for Fruit and food for the  Roadies⚜️

With the snacks we are providing for our students we would love to include a piece of fruit as well.  We have been able to do so that last couple of weeks but need donations to keep it going.  We would also like to provide snacks and hydration to the hard-working roadies.  We are hoping to get either monetary donations or gift cards ($25-$50 to Costco, Albertsons, Ralphs, Smart&Final, Winco) would be greatly appreciated to help our students have fruit and keep the Roadies going during our long Saturdays.  You can submit a one-time donation online at  https://www.sanmarcosbands.org/donate/

and indicate in the company name that is for the Roadies or drop off a gift card at the Spirit Wear table on Monday nights.

⚜️Tickets for Tournament at St. George NOW AVAILABLE!! ⚜️

  Tickets are available for the tournament at St. George (technically the tournament is held at the city Washington, right next to St. George) - they are cheaper if you buy them online.  In past years the Finals general admission has sold out and the lines are VERY long if you buy at the venue.  We would suggest getting an all day pass so that you can watch the Knight Regiment in the Prelims and also when we make it to the Finals :).  Here is the website that you can go to in order to purchase tickets: 

⚜️Candy Lei Collection⚜️

It is that time of year to start collecting candy to make candy leis for the students to present to them at their last performance.  If you can buy a couple extra bags of Halloween candy and donate it that would be much appreciated! 

Please try to avoid candy that contains peanuts.  Please bring all donations (candy must be individually wrapped) to the Spirit Wear table at Monday practices.

⚜️Save the dates:⚜️
As we look forward, we would like to let you know about a couple important dates – all can be found in Charms:
 

  • Oct. 21 -Half-time Show – (more info and sign ups on the way)
  • Oct. 22-Vista Murrieta Tournament 
  • -Oct. 31Trunk or Treat – (more information soon)
⚜️DONATIONS⚜️
It will cost approximately $1150 for each student this year ($800 for normal marching band/color guard + $350 for the St. George, UT trip).  We are asking that each family donate $550 toward the program so that we can continue to hire the instrument coaches needed, buy the props for the show, pay for transportation, and the list goes on and on.  If you would like to donate and didn’t have a chance to do so during enrollment please go to https://www.sanmarcosbands.org/donate/  Any amount will help!
