10/20/23 Football Halftime

Thank you to everyone who has been helping on the Pit Crew. We’re glad you’re on the team. We have another football game and halftime performance on Friday, October 20, 2023.

We will need at least dozen people to help with the Pit Crew for this game and for tomorrow’s NSBA competition. This game will be a good run-through for the pit crew in preparation for the final performance tomorrow at NSBA in Kearney. Please be sure to sign up for the game and for the NSBA competition on the SignUp Genius link on this site or the Band website.

The evening schedule:
5:25 pm – South side of CT Ryan Library on UNK campus – unload percussion and low brass
6:00 pm – move to North side of Foster Field – unload everything for the game and performance – this includes stands to the stadium, podiums, all instruments and props
6:30 pm – manage parking lot traffic for a safe passage of the band
*** This is Senior Night, so if you have a Senior, once we have everything unloaded be sure to go assemble for the recognition on the field.
Once the band is at the field, you can go watch the game – we need you back at the trailer by 5:00 in 2nd qtr.
At 5:00 minutes time clock remaining of 2nd quarter – meet at trailer for assignments (do the same job you have been doing all year – if possible) and prepare to move to field
At 2:00 minutes time clock remaining – move front ensemble out onto the field
After the performance, we reload the trailer
After the game, please bring the Sousa stands to the trailer ASAP. We also need all stands and equipment returned to the trailer.

We will need help unloading back at the High School afterward. This is NSBA weekend and we are hosting at Kearney High School. We need everything unloaded so students have it ready for a Saturday morning rehearsal and for their NSBA performance on Saturday evening. See the NSBA post for details.

For all the details, visit our Football page with the whole game plan for the evening.

Remember to sign up on the SignUp Genius page. We need to make sure we have enough Pit Crew help to get the job done.

Contact Ed Uden 308-440-0694 if you have any questions. We will be updating information on this Pit Crew site (http://pitcrew.kearneybands.com) and on the Band website under Band Parent Assoc / Band Pit Crew.

Thank you for helping with the Pit Crew. Remember to wear blue.
