How will check-in work?
When you arrive there will be people (and signs) showing you where to proceed. All students will need to report to the Performance Center (located on the 3rd floor of Mason Hall) and Directors/Chaperones will need to report to the Leone Cole Auditorium to check their students in. Check-in will be for band directors/chaperones only, to help expedite the process (students should remain in the Performance Center). After you have been checked-in you will be given further instructions/wrist bands/final schedule. |
