Brooks High School; Killen, AL

Great job this weekend ladies.  A few kinks to work out, but overall great job!  Keep up the great work as we move toward the next competition at Brooks High School in Killen, AL.  Also, notice that practices this week are at THS due to scheduling conflict.

F.Y.I

Just to let you know.  The Hoover updates did not effect us.  The only thing that changed is that the Dega Darlins will go on at 8:03 instead of 8:05.  You can still use the itinerary that I gave you for Hoover.  It is linked in an earlier post if you lost it.  Scroll down.... :)

Google Calendar!

Hi Everyone!  I am very excited to offer a NEW feature to our blog.  Since the addition of page tabs to blogger, I have now added a page that has a calendar of events for the Ellis Emeralds.  Hopefully you will find this to be something of GREAT use to you.  I will update it often in an effort to stay connected with everyone and assist in keeping conflicts to a minimum. 

Look on the Right side of the page.  You will see Home and Calendar listed under PAGES. To view the Calendar simply click on the word 'calendar'.  When the Calendar page opens you will see events and times listed in GREEN.  To see the entire entry or to see specific details, click on the GREEN link on each day.

As we experiment with this new page please feel free to let me know of any problems that you are having.  
It is a work in progress, but one worth exploring for sure. 

New Schedule for HOOVER!

I received an email from the SCGC Contest director stating that the Hoover Competition would have time changes and could vary up to 20 minutes from what I originally gave you.  I am not sure in what direction the time changes will occur.  As soon as I have the NEW schedule I will get it to you. I should have it some time on Monday.

Flip Flop Friday.....

Food, Fun, Friends and of course..... Flip Flops!


What a great way to end a very busy week.  I hope that each Ellis Emerald had an enjoyable time with each other and the Dega Darlins and Dega Addition.  Hanging out, getting to know each other better and a little artsy project to finish off a VERY busy week and to look forward to an EVEN BUSIER ONE ahead.  I am looking forward to what lies ahead and I hope you are as well.  The Hoover Competition is just around the corner!  Get lots of rest this weekend so you will be rested for the BUSY week ahead!

Practice.

We will have practice on Monday. However, we will have it from 4:30-6:30 due to band rehearsal for the Tuesday night concert at both the high school and the middle school.

Don't forget about your Winter Guard shirt order forms. They are due Tuesday so we can get them in time for the next competition.

Also, we have had hotel sign up for Championships in Nashville. If you need to add something or change something let me know ASAP.

In the meantime. Practice. :)
