Here we are - the final week of the competitive season! We are looking forward to an amazing week of rehearsals and performances. The kids have off from Wednesday on which will keep their energy levels up! We have so much working in our favor. We can't wait to hit the field in Harrisburg!

There are a few updates for this week's schedule. Here we go...

WDMB TRUNK-OR-TREAT – 10/30
Thank you to everyone who made this event a great experience for the kids. It was a great way to share time together and have fun. 

COLD WEATHER & MARCHING BAND
Our season is very unique as we start in the heat of the summer and end in the cold of winter. This week we are expecting temps in the 40s-50s, and we need to be prepared. Students are asked to dress seasonably and sensibly for rehearsals. Band does not stop due to cold, we just need to be prepared. 

We recommend everyone have Chapstick type lip balm products (especially wind players). We also recommend everyone layer up under garments, but not too heavy that they would be restricted while moving. We want everyone to be comfortable and prepared. Please plan accordingly.

FOOTBALL (H) PLEASANTVILLE - Thursday, 11/4
The final WD Varsity football game of 2021 will be played at HOME this THURSDAY night. Game will start at 6pm vs. Pleasantville. The WDMB will be performing its full field show at halftime. This will be our final home performance under the lights this season.

 
ACC SEND-OFF PERFORMANCE - Saturday, 11/6
At the conclusion of Saturday's ACC rehearsal, we want to present our full program to our family and friends one last time before we head into Harrisburg.  Please come to the stadium @1pm and cheer these kids on! All are invited!
 
ATLANTIC COAST CHAMPIONSHIPS - Sunday, 11/7
Heading into ACCs, the WDMB is ranked #1 and everyone is pushing hard preparing for the final showdown. We have awesome competitors, and we want to wish everyone the very best and good skills in Harrisburg.
 
For 2021 we have a new ACC location:
Central Dauphin Stadium
4600 Locust Lane
Harrisburg, PA
 
=> ACC tickets are now available from Mr. Kershaw!
Adults $20 ($25 at the Gate)
