Band Uniform Fitting Reminders

Over the course of the next two days (Seniors/Juniors on Monday, and Sophomores/Freshman on Tuesday), all DGN Marching Band members will be fitted with a 2014-15 uniform.

Fittings will begin at 12:15 PM, following the morning practice, and continue until 3:00 each day.

Students should arrive on their assigned day wearing shorts made of light fabric (so they can easily pull long pants over the shorts), and a t-shirt.  Students should know, at a minimum, their current HEIGHT and WEIGHT.  Knowing the exact height and weight is important.

Additionally, if a student knows any specific measurements (i.e. chest, waist, inseam, out-seam, etc.) it can aid our volunteers and directors in trying to find a good fit.

Students should bring a check - payable to "DGN - BANDS" to cover uniform usage/cleaning fees, hat, t-shirt, gloves, and shoes.  Please use the following to determine the appropriate amount:

$60 (Winds/Percussion who have ordered new shoes)
$45 (Color Guard who have ordered new shoes)
$35 (Winds/Percussion who have NOT ordered new shoes)
$20 (Color Guard who have NOT ordered new shoes)

The length of time it takes a student to move through the fitting process varies, but families should plan on it taking at least an hour.  Some students might want to walk to lunch following the morning practice, and then come back a little bit later in the afternoon.

All students should be in line no later than 2:00 PM on their assigned day.
