Fruit distribution this year will be Monday, December 12th at the Sioux Empire Fairgrounds armory (brick building north of the grandstands).

5. Drill Master shoes and gloves do not need to be returned, as they are personal property that you have paid for. However, shoe donations from seniors (or growing feet) are welcome and appreciated at this time and may be placed in the box in the band room.
6. All additional uniform parts that have been borrowed from chaperone’s must also be cleaned and returned at this time.
