Students are encouraged to wear a Halloween costume instead of their band uniform as long as they are able to perform in it. Costumes should not be bloody/goory, contain weapons, or be inappropriate for our Kindergarten guests. To help make this a fun night for our students, we are joining together with the Football, Cheer, and Dance boosters to host a Trunk-or-Treat before the game starting at 5:00 pm. We are looking for volunteers to set up a Trunk-or-Treat station for our kids to visit. This can be Parents, Grandparents, Friends, Families, or even a section of the Band! The more 'Trunks' we have the more enjoyable this will be. Sign up here: https://forms.gle/s4HjVxCftUkpSsBTA We are also looking for candy donations to help support the event. Mrs. Flippo has ordered some candy to give us a good start, but we will not a lot more. Those providing a trunk will also need to provide candy if possible. You can commit to a candy donation here or have your student drop it by the band room. Finally, Mrs. Flippo has invited the kindergarten students from our 6 feeder elementary schools to participate in a bridging ceremony with our Seniors around 6:30 pm prior to the game. Those students have been invited to participate in the Trunk-or-Treat. So, we should anticipate their participation and plan accordingly when purchasing candy. Siblings/family of cheer, dance, football, and band will also be able to attend. Please sign up here: https://forms.gle/s4HjVxCftUkpSsBTA What: Trunk-or-Treat Where: Milton Frank Stadium Parking Lot When: Thursday Night, October 31, 2024 - 5pm Senior & Kindergarten Bridging Ceremony to follow at 6:30pm at the 50 Yard Line.
