Championships Week!!

We've been doing this together since mid-August, and now our journey is nearly complete. NWAPA Championships are this week, at Autzen Stadium!


We'll rehearse Monday and Wednesday at the usual time (with sectionals beforehand, for some groups), and Friday 10-2. Loading will follow at 2:30. At that point, a short afternoon nap might be great, along with some food. Be back at the school by 5:30, with everything you will need for the trip to Eugene (see the list on the sidebar).

Once we're packed up and ready to go, we'll head to Tualatin, to cheer on our football team AND our friends in the TuHS band. And after the game, we're off to Eugene!

When we arrive in Eugene, we will (VERY QUIETLY!) get room keys and head to bed - lights out 30 minutes after we arrive. That means go to sleep - no texting, social media, Netflix, or anything else - you need to be well-rested for Saturday.

Saturday we are up at 6:30 am. Time to dress (no jacket, yes bibs). Be at the hotel breakfast area by 6:55, and remember that there are many other people eating breakfast who are not part of our group. We are always polite.

Once we are finished with Prelims, we will return to the hotel to pack up, and then you will have the opportunity to go our to eat with band friends, at one of the approved restaurants. We will the return to Autzen, and await Prelim results. Check out the schedule to see how the rest of the day will go.

Make sure you look at the Travel Expectations on the sidebar, along with the list of what to bring.

Championships - yay!
