Dega Darlins 2011
The time is quickly approaching.... I CANNOT believe we are wrapping up the 4th Winter Guard season for the Dega Darlins. I am very excited about the trip coming up and I am even more excited about the dedication, hard work and preparation that I have seen from such an AMAZING group of talented young ladies. :)
A few last minute details to help us as we get closer to departure.
- The Itinerary online is correct. We do have the performance times that are within that block, but overall everything stays pretty much the same. When you receive the official itinerary on Friday morning you will the exact time that we discussed posted. Also, instead of going downtown for dinner, we will go for lunch, which will give us more time. In the meantime if you have questions ASK!
- We discussed the possibility of going to Wild Horse as a group. As of right now, enough people have not turned in their information. If they do by this afternoon then we will go, if not then we will not. I will let you know when I am positive.
- TRAVEL FORMS ARE PAST DUE!!!!!!
- INTERSTATE: There is a large delay on I-65 North around the Cullman exit. It has been advised that we find an alternate route due to the fact the delay has taken up to 2 hours, which we do not have in our schedule. It is only 20 more minutes according to
google maps to go to Gadsden, get on I-59 and go North to Chattanooga then over to Nashville. The total trip being 4 hours and 23 minutes as opposed to 4 hours. The downfall is that they are doing construction here as well and it is a one lane road... however, thetraffic moves at a consistent pace here and will not slow us too much. - Friday Lunch.... We will still stop at Steak 'n shake on the way up. We will just stop at a different location. It is actually still about 30 minutes outside of Nashville like before...I will have a map for the location... it is right on the interstate. (Symrna, TN)
HI Ladies!
SCGC Championships... right around the corner... YAY!
With Spring break ending and school starting back you know we have A LOT of work to do and a little time to do it. Please check the calendar on Dega Band for updated times. You will notice that Brian is coming on both Monday and Tuesday. You will also notice that he is working on both days with both you and the Addition. In order to make this possible we had to rearrange some of the times. He wanted for you guys to be last so it pushed your time back some. Please review the times and make needed arrangements. Also, remember that we will go to Ellis during 5th everyday this coming week.
If you did not notice the video from Brooks is posted below. Also, the judges had some very good comments about what you are already doing and some things we can work on to make it even better. You know that we have a few changes to make and things to adjust this week. With the hard work you have shown so far this year and the great dedication I have no doubt that this is going to be an outstanding week. It will be tiring, but I encourage you to push through, take your vitamins, get lots of sleep and push to the end, hopefully, for a very rewarding experience. This is going to be a busy yet fun week for sure. Don't forget to express thanks to Brian. He will be driving TWO days from Atlanta and then to Nashville on Friday!
You will have the updated Itinerary as soon as I get the times. I received an email stating that final times would be issued before 5pm on Monday. If I get them before your practice you will get them on Monday at rehearsal, if not, you will get them Tuesday. On Friday you when you arrive at ZEJH to depart you will receive a packet of needed information for the trip; maps, itinerary, addresses, phone #'s and such. In the meantime if you have questions ask Lacey, Me or Mr. McDaniel.
See you Soon!
Here is the video from Brooks.... you will have to ignore the heads of the audience and the nice black bar, but enjoy! I am also uploading the Dega Addition and Ellis Emeralds to their blog... so check it out! :)
