Tag Day is Back!
COVID-19, illness, and time forced us to take a three year hiatus, so this is a refresher/crash course in all-things Tag Day.
Tag Day is a mandatory event for all marching band members. This year, Tag Day is Saturday, August 19, 2023. Report time is at 9 a.m. in the band room; please wear a band T-shirt and jeans or shorts (no short shorts). At report time, we will go over the rules of Tag Day. The teams will then go out in the community, going door-to-door from 10 a.m. until about 2 p.m. with a grab-and-go pizza lunch provided at noon.
What Is Tag Day?
Tag Day is when the marching band and guard members go door-to-door all over the city of Delaware asking for donations. It is one of our biggest fundraising events of the year.
Parent Volunteers
Of course, we can’t have a successful Tag Day without the help of the parents! Below is the parent volunteer help needed:
- 20 parent drivers (NO STUDENT DRIVERS)
- 5 parent money counters
- 4 parent lunch servers/clean-up (pizza & drinks)
Each team will consist of one parent driver and however many band members will fit in the vehicle, generally between 4 and 6.
Parents
Please sign up on the SignUp Genius by August 17th and let us know how many students you can fit in your car if you sign up to drive.
Band Members
Tag Day volunteers will be at practice the Thursday before Tag Day (August 17) so you can sign up your team with an adult driver.
Please text me at 740-602-1017 if you have any questions.
