SM West Band at Graduation Tonight!

Call time is 6:15 at South Stadium to get set up and ready. We will begin playing shortly after 6:30. Dress nicely, similar to the Spring Concert. However, please note it is typically cool when the sun goes down. You will want long sleeves. Ladies, you will want something on your legs or a long dress or skirt. You will also not want to wear heels, maybe wedges, or you will sink into the turf.
