London Connection! NEW INFORMATION!!!
Remember, even if you plan to do concert band only, if you are planning to march the parade in London, you need to attend week 1 of band camp!

Payment #3 of $400 is due by THIS FRIDAY, March 31st!  For this payment, please also include email addresses of travelers in your party who do not receive our emails.  We need to make sure we have a communication trail to everyone! To be an active member of the trip, every traveler must have submitted $1000 by March 31st.  It's not too late to join.  We are currently at 170 travelers.

Parent Coordinator
Our parent trip coordinator for London is Karen Hansberger.  If you have specific questions about the trip as we get closer, she will be a great resource.  She will also be helping collect rooming lists, passport copies, bus lists, shipping documents, and more.   Her email is [email protected]

Next Payment
Friday, March 31st is the next Payment- $400 per traveler. 

Performances

The band will perform multiple times in London - the parade being the biggest performance.  We are also planning a concert performance and some possible pop up performances.

Information
We have ADDED A SAMPLE ITINERARY TO THE DRIVE!  London information can be found in our google drive. Click here to access google drive

What do I need to do right now?
 1.  Get your passport now!  It should be valid 6 months past our return date!
 2.  Investigate your best option for overseas phone possibilities.  Each phone company has different options.  You will need to have access to phone communication while you are in London!
  3.  Research and investigate your credit card and financial options.  Each bank and card is different.  Make sure your card won't lock you out when you get to London 

FAQ: 
Can I still sign up?  
Yes - but you must pay for all missed deposits on your first payment or else you can't be locked into the trip.  At some point, there will be price increases, room assignments done, airline flights arranged, and other logistical things related to the trip completed.  After we do those things, anyone added will just be accommodated the best we can.  Our contract is for 150 people so we must be atleast at this number of travelers.  If you have not signed up, the sooner you can do this the better for us because numbers dictate many things!  We will at least be taking additional travelers through Band Camp.  

When do you have to declare if you are doing land only or full trip?  
I don't have an exact date, but my best estimate is early Fall 2023.

When do I need my passport by?
We will start collecting passport copies in August.  If you are committed to going, you need to have your passport by then.  We will still be able to add at that point, but anyone going must be able to get a passport in time.  

Will I have free time in London?
There will be a variety of structured and unstructured time in London.   Please remember this is a group band/school trip, not an individual or family vacation.  Those traveling are expected to participate in all group events (unless health issues don't allow).  You should also have plenty of time to move around London in smaller or family groups to do things not on the itinerary (London Eye, show in West end, etc).  Take a look at the sample itinerary in the google drive for a better idea.   You will have plenty of time to see and do what you would like to do!  Some things in London are better experienced in small groups rather than large groups.  More about this later....

Rooms
Because of the size and nature of hotel rooms in London, hotel rooms will be 2 people per room (2 single beds or a double).  Some hotels have limited family rooms available, but we can't guarantee there will be enough to accommodate all family situations.    We will be collecting room requests in the Fall.   We will know our hotel by Fall.  

Final Fundraiser of the Year 
The crazy sock fundraiser is currently in progress.  All students were given a sheet of information on how it works and we had a kick-off meeting last Wednesday.  There will be a 60/40 split on this fundraiser with 60% going towards your individual account and 40% going to the band.  As always we appreciate your help to raise money for your account and the band!

Encourage your student to load as many contacts as possible into their account and share it on text messages, email, and social media!

The deadline is Friday, April 7th.  

COMMEMORATIVE BRICKS!
Be on the lookout for the link to order your commemorative bricks next week!  These bricks will be professionally engraved and installed in the main courtyard at HHS. These tributes to your student will leave their mark on the grounds of HHS and is a great way to honor their years of hard work!  

BAND BANQUET!  Mark your calendars for the best Band Banquet ever!  See you Friday Night, May 12 at StoveHouse!  Many more details soon to come! 

BAND CONTRACTS!!!
Now is the time to make your commitment for band next year.  The contract is due by March 31 and the latest marching band numbers can be adjusted is audition week (first week of May).  You can fill out and email back or turn into the band box at school.   Remember, even if you plan to do concert only, if you are planning to march the parade in London, you need to attend week 1 of band camp!

Final Fundraiser of the Year 
Our other fundraiser this semester, the 2nd Boston Butt sale, fell through because of supplier issues. Since we are going to London next year, we wanted to make sure you have as many opportunities to fundraise for your account as possible.  We are inviting our current 8th grade students to participate as well.  There will be a 60/40 split on this fundraiser with 60% going towards your individual account and 40% going to the band.  As always, we appreciate your help to raise money for your account and the band!  We will kick this off Wednesday in a full meeting with the band with Charlie Colwell (also known as "the mattress guy").

We will be selling crazy and fun socks in pairs of 3 for $25 each. One of the best parts of this fundraiser is that this company wants to give back to our community.  For every pack purchased, 1 additional pair will be donated to the Huntsville Rescue Mission.  All of this fundraiser can be done through social media. Socks are shipped DIRECTLY to the purchaser!

You will see more information coming out this week.  It will run for 2+ weeks - starting Wednesday, March 22 and ending Friday, April 7th.

IMPORTANT The tentative schedule for SCGC Finals at Western Kentucky on Saturday, April 1st in Bowling Green, Kentucky has us performing around 10:30 am with check in at 9!  This is early especially for a location that is 3 hours away from us.  We are planning to meet there as we always do.  If you want to leave that morning, you are probably looking at a 5:30 am departure.    However, I wanted to give you a heads up in case some of you may want to split hotel the night before either in Bowling Green or somewhere like Nashville that's about 75 minutes away.  I believe there are some very reasonably priced hotel rooms in the Bowling Green area.  Awards for our classification at Finals is around 3:15 pm.  Food options can be found here:  https://www.scgconline.org/resources/1951.pdf
