This is going home today. Please look at new arrival times: 11-28-2016
Please look at new times! It’s almost time for the Mainx24 Parade! The Offutt family has generously offered their home as a meeting place for us. For 6-8, this is a test grade. For 4-5, it’s extra credit. Here are the details: December 3rd 2016 8:45-9:00 - Arrive at Offutt House. Here is the address: 1910 Rossville Ave. (the street that runs between the fire station and the Church on Main) Coming from the direction of Main Street, we are the 6th house on the left past the railroad tracks. Red 2 story house with wooden fence in front yard. There will be limited parking on the street near the house - look for a spot anywhere on Rossville or Main - we are just a couple blocks from Main Street so it's a short walk from Main, and also a very short walk to the park where the parade lines up. 9:00 - Students have instruments assembled and ready to play at the Offutt house. Cases should be left with family. We will walk to the parade location as a group. 9:30 - Students are in the parade spot. 10:30-11:30 - Students march in the Parade. We will play Jingle Bells and Let’s go Lightning. 11:30 - Students are released to families at the Offutt House. Dress
In the event of rainy weather, students will wear a clear plastic poncho. I’ll have them available or you can bring your own. In previous years, students have had cookies and treats after the parade. We have had some volunteers for cookies but still could use some bottle water. Please contact me if you would like to bring treats, bottled water, or any other goodies for the students at 11:30. It’s going to be fun! Sincerely, Erin McKee [email protected]
