Colorado State Fair

Dear LHS Band Parents,

Two brief announcements pertaining to our participation and performances at the Colorado State Fair Parade on Saturday, August 23rd:

1.  $5 tickets are available (normally $10) for any families planning on going to the State Fair portion of our day.  The Band will march in the parade in Downtown Pueblo in the morning (this is free for anyone who wishes to watch) and then we will transfer over to the State Fairgrounds for another performance in the afternoon.  All band students will get into the State Fairgrounds for free, everyone else will need a ticket.  

[ Note:  Please let me know how many tickets you would like by Friday morning!!!]

2.  We will need a couple of Pick-up trucks and trailers to transport our Large Instruments and Percussion equipment to the State Fair on Sat. August 23rd.  If you have a Pick-up truck or vehicle with a trailer that can drive to Pueblo and back that day, please let me know so that we can plan our transportation needs for that day.

Thank you,

Don Emmons, Instrumental Music Director

If you wish to leave them for future car washes they will be used and appreciated! They'll be removed from the band room after this week and stored with the rest of the car wash supplies.

They are needed by August 15^th. If you can assist in finding and purchasing them please contact Lynn Wells at lewells2@hotmail.com.
