Letter from Mr. Deen

Parents/Guardians,

Thank you for your continued support of one of the greatest youth organizations in our community!  Jacket Regiment is a source of pride for North Augusta, the CSRA, and our surrounding communities!

Water jugs and proper clothing are required for each rehearsal.  As each member depletes their water, we have volunteers handy to refill their water jugs with both ice and water.  Bottled water is provided at all performances for the Jacket Regiment.  Please see a previous email regarding bottled water and section assignments.

This Friday, we begin a new tradition in our school community.  Jacket Regiment will present two community based performances prior to the game.  The first will occur outside of the gym at 6:40.  Jacket Regiment will then march down Jacket Lane, turn right onto Knobcone and present another performance at the main gate to the stadium prior to the game. Our administration and NAPD are making all of this possible.   Both have been most helpful in providing a secure and positive environment for our Jacket Regiment.   I look forward to adding this level of spirit to our home football games.  Feel free to join us!   However, you will have to purchase a ticket to enter the gate.  Parent/guardians that are working our various duties will have an opportunity at a later date for a special encore performance just for you!

Report time Friday night is 6 pm late in the gym.  Guard will wear uniforms, and winds/percussion will wear band shoes, black socks, bibbers and JR t-shirt.  If your member does not have this t-shirt, any solid white t-shirt will suffice.  We are doing this due to the extreme heat this week.

Please visit our concession stands, as it supports your Jacket Regiment member.  Thanks again for all that you do, and looking forward to seeing you Friday night!

Chuck
