Time to Dry Clean Your Band Uniform!

HEY BAND! It’s time to dry clean your uniform! Take your jacket and pants to Colonial Valet within the week. Colonial Valet at 252 Great Rd. in Acton will give you a discounted price, but you can use your favorite local dry cleaner, if preferred. 

Prep—

✅ Remove neck liner (wash at home, machine wash cold and hang dry).

✅ Remove all cords and braids.

✅ Check pockets.

✅ Leave safety pins in place (don’t remove).

✅ Stains on your jacket? (e.g. hot chocolate) Do not attempt home treatments. Take it to Colonial Valet and show them the stain when dropping off.

Please remember to promptly pick up your dry-cleaned uniform and reattach braids, cords, and neck liner before neatly storing it in your garment bag until the spring.

Your rain coat does NOT get dry cleaned.

It Takes a Village

It takes a village to move a marching band! Watch our parent volunteers help the AB Band at Wakefield move instruments and equipment at the MICCA preliminary event on October 16. Many hands make light work. Help us support the band this Sunday, October 24 for the MICCA Finals in Quincy. Contact Sara at volunteer@nullabfom.org. (by volunteering, you’ll get to see the kids perform for free!)

Hold Those Snacks!

Attention Saxes, Trumpets, Euphoniums, Horns, and Guard families—You’re scheduled to bring snacks this week. Because no snacks were served at MICCA, we have an abundance of snacks to use for this coming week. PLEASE DON’T BRING SNACKS on October 22 or 24. Hospitality will reassign your snacks for the November events. Thank you to the other band families for the generous donations of snacks for the kids.
