Hello, everyone,

 

This message only applies to returning marchers.  As you know, every year we set up a rookie buddy system.  In the past, every vet has been assigned to a rookie.  This year, since we realize that those vets who do not wish to participate in the first place will not be the most...attentive buddies, being a vet buddy is totally voluntary.  However, you will be assigned to a rookie buddy unless you send me an email at claretmurphy@... telling us not to assign you as a vet buddy. (please don't make a return email from this message, as this may be sent to the entire group.)  Please send me this by July 28th at the latest, so that we will be able to put up a list of rookie and vet buddies well before preband camp starts.  Being a vet buddy will be worth one marching band service point.  Thanks for your time.
