A Day in the Life of a Band Parent (part 1)

They are the ones who get there earlier and stay later. the ones who make sure we have food, water, and clean uniforms. that's exactly right, I'm talking about our lovely, lovely band parents.

There's so much they do for us that I think we should just take a second to say:

Thank you band parents. For all you do for us, we love you. 

Shall we start with the food? My personal favorite!

 They(1) plan out each meal,  also (2)shop for it, (3) let it take up space in their freezers or refrigerators, (4)cook/prepare it, again, (5)let it take up space in their refrigerators, (6)bring it to school, (7) set it up, (8)serve, (9)clean up, (10) pack up leftovers and containers,  and yet again (11) let it take up space in their refrigerators and freezers until needed again.

What d you think? cause to me that sounds like a frikin' long list of stuff that they do for us. And what more: rinse and repeat 9+ times each marching season and you get a small amount of everything they do for us.
