Since we have so many bands at the Chicago Games, here are some things that some people may have questions about
-
Band Tent set up starts at 12:00 noon on Friday June 16 and not before.
-
All soloists and any accompanists must wear highland uniform including a hat
-
Grade 4 & 5 will be starting between 8:30 and 9:00 in the morning. The Grade 4 & 5 Band Meeting will be on Friday Afternoon and the Grade 3 & 2 & 1 Band Meeting will be on Saturday Morning. PLEASE have a representative at the Meeting.
-
There are NO early massed bands. Only the closing Massed Bands.
-
If you are playing in the solos or on a band roster, your name will be at the gate entrance to get in. There are NO wrist Bands or Tickets.
-
There is NO Concert Formation this year. All contests will be the march into a traditional circle.
-
It is very important that everyone is on time for their solo or band event. It will be a tight schedule. There are 47 bands and over 500 solos so everyone must be on time.
