Rain plan for tonight;
The heaviest of the weather is supposed to hit right around 8:00. The MSBOA Marching Band VP and the hosting directors have already made the decision to NOT have a traditional awards ceremony at the end of the evening. I will find a place to have our own “ceremony” after we get the trailer packed up. Once I figure that out, I will make another post here, and have the kids text you as well if you’d like to join us.
So once again, bring it on, Mother Nature! We can TAKE whatever you have to GIVE!!
We’re gonna tear the roof off the sucker!!

12:00n Arrive in Romeo and report to assigned area. Await further instruction. You know the routine; hurry up and wait.

1:30p Parade Begins

Step off – We won’t know our parade spot until that day, so stepoff time is not known just yet.

3:30p Arrive back at Ford (approximately)

If parents are at the parade and plan on picking up students at Ford, please leave right after we pass you. Don’t wait until the parade ends to start home. There will be an adult present at school for one half-hour
after the busses have dropped us off! Also, please try to park in an area that will give you easier access to leave Romeo- south of the parade route is recommended.

If you are taking your child home directly from the parade, please send in a note to be given to the bus chaperon and pick them up at the location on the map.

The Parade starts at Main Street & Gates and proceeds south. The
dispersal/pick-up area is at Croswell Elementary on Dunham Road; you
