ALL REGION AUDITIONS – FRESHMEN

Date: Saturday, Dec. 14, 2019

Auditionees:  9th grade students who are signed up to audition

Location:  Shoemaker H.S. 3302 N. Clear Creek Dr., Killeen, TX. 76549

Itinerary for the day:

8:00am – Students meet in BHS band hall, roll taken at 8:05am

8:20am – Buses leave from BHS to take students to Shoemaker HS for auditions

9:00am – arrive at Shoemaker HS.  Percussion students help unload equipment.  All other students to cafeteria for check-in and warm-up

9:30am – judge’s meeting (all directors will be in this meeting)

10:00am – auditions begin

No way of knowing when auditions will finish – depends on the number of students auditioning, judge panels, etc.  Please read on…

This will be a short audition but we have no actual idea of when each room will finish.  At this time we are not planning on any student leaving the audition before the entire group is done.  Please contact Mrs. Gill if there is a concern.  Thank you.

Concession stand and warm-up will be in the cafeteria and signs will be posted as to where the audition rooms will be located.  There is to be no playing in the halls. Keep cafeteria clean – pick up after yourselves.

Students will be made aware of the electronics rules and how to properly behave in the audition room. TMEA now encourages us to turn in information on schools where students disrespect the audition process and letters of reprimand can be sent to directors and administrators if your students cause problems during the auditions.

Students should wear comfy clothes, bring all music (measures numbered), pencils, books to read, water, snacks (may not be able to eat in audition rooms but water is ok), homework. Phone can be in the room with you but must be turned off.
