Blue Brigade - Linden Invitational, Sat. 09/29/18

9/25/2018

0 Comments

 
The 2018 Blue Brigade marching band opens the MCBA season, with their 1st competition of the season at Linden High School on Saturday, September 29th. If you haven't seen their show 'War Dance' yet, you're in for a treat. Please come out and support the Brigade and cheer them on.

Chaperones / Volunteers
We will be in need of at least four adults who will be willing to chaperone the busses, in the stands, etc.  In addition, we will need volunteers to help move equipment on and off the field throughout our performance cycle.  If you are able to assist in either fashion, please let me know at bjones@carmanainsworth.org

Tickets
I have a limited number of tickets to be purchased for the show for $10.00. If you plan
on attending the performance, please purchase the tickets from me so the band gets to
keep the money and recoup our entry fee. Tickets will also be available at the gate
Mr Jones
