June 6 Schedule / Tour Jersey Photo / Google Calendar Subscription

With 15 days to go until departure you should now expect more frequent updates with important updates and final announcements. Today's post is a reminder that we have our first rehearsals with the tour ensembles on Monday, June 6th, and to request you sign up for our Google Calendar on your SmartDevice.

Schedule for June 6


  • 9 AM - 12 noon: Full Concert Band Rehearsal
  • 12:00 - 12:15 PM:  Group Photo (for publicity and posters) *
  • 1:30 - 3:00 PM: Jazz Band Rehearsal (selected students)

Please arrive in the Band Room at DGN by 8:45 AM to locate your seat, warm-up your instrument, and find your tour jersey.  Don't forget your music binder!

* At the end of our first rehearsal we will take a large-group photo with our instruments.  We will wear our tour soccer jersey for this photograph.  Students must arrive to rehearsal wearing black dress pants, black dress shoes, and a short-sleeve black t-shirt that you will wear under the tour jersey.

GOOGLE CALENDAR 

We have added all itinerary events to a Google Calendar.  Students are strongly encouraged to subscribe to the Google Calendar on their SmartPhones.  (Parents may do this as well.)  

Please note that all events have been entered in the time-zone for which they will take place.  In doing so, the events will appear correctly for students traveling with their devices in France and Germany.  

You may subscribe to our Google calendar/itinerary on your portable mobile devices. If you are already a Google Calendar user, here is the Google Calendar ID for our tour:
