Please sign-up to help with volunteer duties at the home football game tonight, where our RBR musicians will be performing pep tunes in support of our Chargers football team. Our kids can't take the field without our help. It's also great fun for the parents.

Volunteers will be meeting in front of the band room at 6:00 PM. The game starts at 7:30 PM.

And if you can't volunteer, we still hope to see you at the game. The Music Boosters are usually seated at the opposite end from the entrance—look for a sea of boosters t-shirts. So come out and show some school spirit, and your support for our band and football players!

The professional RBR group photo and individual photos in uniform will be taken on Wednesday, October 20th, at ETHS at 3:30 PM (the time was reported as 4:30 PM in the calendar; please note the correction).
