Spring Trip Meeting!

From 3/7/13...

Our required Disney Trip meeting is next Thursday night, March 14th @ 7 p.m. in the auditorium.  Guard Girls MUST have a Parent and/or Guardian attend to complete required travel documents.  More details posted here next Monday afternoon!!

Updated added Monday, March 11th...

Parent/Guardian should be prepared to update student health & travel forms with any insurance changes and/or contact info updates.  Signature & date will be required as proof that the forms we have on file are accurate.

Guard members traveling without a Parent...prescription & over the counter medication forms will be available at the meeting and must be turned in by the parent to our school nurse during regular school hours on or before Friday, April 19th.

Chaperones/Parents/Followers who wish to purchase the three Disney Trip Tees that the band will wear on the trip may do so ONLY at the meeting Thursday night.  Trip Tees are being sold prepaid only and must be bought "all or none"...all in the same adult size.  Be prepared to turn in the adult size you need along with a $30 (per person) check made out to OGHS BAND to place a Trip Tee order.

Adults who paid for their band trip but plan to fly to and/or from Orlando MUST designate in writing the name of the adult they designate to "use" the bus seat they paid for during bus travel to/from Orlando.  Band Parent notes go to Mr. Henson, Guard Parent notes to Donna or Rebecca.

To avoid drama and hurt feelings trip rooming lists for Guard Girls was done by Donna & Rebecca...we assigned 4 or 5 to a room by grade level.  Guard Girls will ride the Guard Bus with Donna/Rebecca and all Guard Parents & Guard Followers will be on a Parent Bus.  Everyone should expect to have a seatmate!!

Please jot down any questions you may have and if they are not covered in the meeting Thursday night find Donna or Rebecca to ask after the meeting.

Winter Guard Info!!

Our Winter Guards and Indoor Drumline compete at Hoover HS this Saturday!!  Winter Guard Info sheet will go home with WG Girls Tuesday afternoon/night.  Others interested in contest info please visit www.scgconline.org  for details.  We would love to see the stands filled with OG people while our kids perform...hope to see you there!!   :0) 

emailed to parents on 3/13...

This clarification of info is for Parents of Veteran Tigerettes Only...




My cell phone allows group messaging (Rebecca's does not) but it has begun to randomly erase people from the groups they are assigned too. Some of you got the text yesterday...some did not. And as well I think some cell numbers for girls and parents may have changed since last fall so...to clarify...



The required Disney Trip meeting for Parents/Adult Followers meeting is tomorrow night at 7 p.m. in the auditorium at OGHS. Please have with you any contact or insurance information that needs to be updated. New this year...Parent/Student will need to sign off that they have received and understand field trip rules and regulations.



Tigerettes will be wearing the black sequin uniform from last fall with ballet shoes that were already purchased for the Disney parade. Girls will also wear Minnie Mouse Ears in the parade. Those were cheaper online than in the park so we ordered them for the whole group. Each Tigerette must turn in $11 (correct cash only) to Maci Swindle at or before tomorrow night's meeting to pay for their mouse ears...and yes, the girls keep the mouse ears and the ballets after the parade. Please take time now to locate your daughter's black sequin uniform and make sure it is hanging safely somewhere so there is no last minute panic about location or condition of the costume at trip time.



Apologies for mix up in communication resulting in last minute notice...
thanks!!
