Game #4

Update 9/15/10...during the last week we have had girls with sinus infections, strep, flu, sprained ankles, and shin splints. Please remember that we always follow doctor's instructions. Parents please help us by seeing that your daughter stays well hydrated and that she is getting plenty of rest at night. Girls please help us by not drinking or eating after each other, by staying hydrated, by getting enough sleep, and also by not participating in activities that could cause an injury. All must note as well that when the doctor says "no participation" that means the girl dresses for practice or performance but "sits out"...girls get back in quicker if they watch & know what is going on. If the doctor says "no school" that means she can't attend band events/games/contests at all. Performance on Fridays and Saturdays will be based on ability to practice full out, and ability to learn the work missed while sick or injured. Thanks in advance for doing your part to stay healthy so we can have everyone on the field in the coming weeks. Thanks!!



Girls are doing a great job thus far!! We are VERY proud of the progress and look forward to the continued growth of the show. Hope to have the full skeleton of our program on the field Friday night. We also appreciate the wonderful support provided by our Guard Parents...we doubt any other Guard in the world has such a great group of parents to work with...thank you...yall rock!!!

Today during 4th block Tigerettes will be given 4 Band Jamboree tickets each to sell during the next week. The tickets are $5 each...CASH ONLY. Tigs must sell all 4 to family, friends, neighbors, church folks, etc. $20 cash must be turned in to Donna or Rebecca on or before Tuesday, September 21st. The money raised from this fundraiser will be used to pay for charter buses to our first BOA event. The purchase of the ticket is considered a "donation" therefore money will not be refunded should the Jamboree be cancelled due to weather or any other reason.
