PARKING on roads in cemetery. It is highly recommended to come early(at least by 8:30. It is a well-attended event. The earlier you are, the closer you are AND you miss the heavy traffic and road closure.

Hi everyone! Please assemble at 12:30p in the full marching uniform (hats, white shirt, navy blue pants, ascot, etc). If you don't have a uniform a white dress shirt and black pants will do. The parade is very short, maybe a block or two in length. Don't forget to bring a lyre. Afterwards we will head to the Care One Facility (675 South Main Street, Sharon) and play a few tunes for their Veterans.

Arrive at court by 6:00p. The basketball game starts at 6:30p. Bring lyres for music. We will play at the beginning and halftime. In marching uniform, white shirts, navy blue pants, hats, and ascots.

After the game, pizza will be provided for the band and veterans!

Notes from Tom O’Connor on how to get to the gym and where to setup below,

1) seats are bench so band members if have ‘Stadium Seats’ please bring and set on top of bench style

2) Baseline ends have pull out stands we probably will sit there during playing of hoops

3) Parking in 2nd lot closer to American Legion side, has 5-6 handicap spots.

4) enter gym at the 3 large window 3 story building from the right (American Legion side),  hard to see unlit label of Gymnasium over doorway

5) they served pizza at $3 slice and snacks at their concession stand during game

6) I’m pretty sure we can bring in our cases

Note: do not park out front near summer concert, on that circle…will have very long walk to doors…gym and all is behind going toward American Legion lot.
