Gatlinburg’s Christmas Parade
Hey parents, who’s riding the bus with me on Friday, December 5 to Gatlinburg? We are leaving the school during 3rd block – that’s band class. Plan ahead, take the day off and come play with us, the more the merrier. Just remember to dress warmly, once the sun goes down it will likely be chilly.
If you ride the bus, you won’t have to worry about parking and we usually stand at the end of the parade route so once the band goes by we can start loading the truck and get out quickly. Doug, the equipment truck driver, and the bus drivers have an excellent plan for getting us out of town before the major traffic jam.
Don’t forget to tell your student to make sure and drink plenty of fluids. We had a few sick ones last year. Even though it’s not hot, it’s still important to stay hydrated because it’s a long day with a tremendous amount of waking and a longggg way to march from the staging area to where the parade starts.
I’m looking forward to not being the only parent on the bus. See you about 11:40!
