LVW Friends and Family Day

​

LVW Food and Food Service Donations

LVW Rehearsal and Excused Absence Form

LVW Friends and Family Day will take place on Sunday, June 22, at FVL.  For more information, and for a Form to sign up, go to our Director's Updates Page.

​
Hello everyone!  Welcome to our food donations signup for Lutheran Vanguard.
It's exciting to begin another season with this terrific group - both the band and the families! Thank you to the many people who have already committed to volunteering their time on the other 2025 Lutheran Vanguard signup.  It wouldn't be possible to put on a season without your help!  This signup is for anyone who is interested in providing a little more support, or for those who might have been unable to volunteer their time but would still like to support our band in other ways.  Whatever your situation, thank you for the help you've provided!
LVW Food Service Donations
We know that not every LVW Member can be present for every rehearsal and performance.  Many do have perfect attendance, however!  That is always the goal.  For LVW Members who will be missing any day (or days) for valid reasons (Family vacation, weddings, driver's education class, camp counselor training, etc), please fill out this form so that the LVW Staff has an accurate count of who will be missing.  This is important for our food service as well.  Thank you for taking care of this!

LVW Members who have summer jobs are expected to inform their place of employment of the LVW Schedule ASAP to avoid being scheduled for work on an LVW day.

​

LVW Marching Members - Here is the Practice Info from your DMs

Pay for your Reserved Tickets  to DCI Show

​Please read the information on the Director's Updates page.  As a SoundSport organization, LVW has some compliance requirements with DCI.  Since we are participating in a Drum Corps International event, every marching member and staff member needs to complete an Individual Participation Waiver Agreement.

This information was sent to all LVW Parents on May 14.  Many have already completed the form.  If you have not done so, please take care of this ASAP.
​
For those who missed out when they were available earlier, we are offering them again!  Check out the information on our Director's Updates page for VIBES earplugs.  They are the same ear plugs used by the Santa Clara Vanguard, The Blue Devils, and many other drum corps.  LVW has secured a very nice deal with VIBES with this special offer!
​
Attention LVW Family and Friends - the link for summer volunteers is now open.  You will find the information, as well as the link to the SignUp form, on our Volunteer page.  We need LOTS of volunteers for the summer.  No experience is necessary - just a willingness to learn from our returning volunteers.  Spots are open from June 10 through June 22.  Spots for the last two weeks of the season will be available in the near future.
​
This post contains LOTS of information!  Please take the time to read through EVERYTHING, as there are important details for both MEMBERS and PARENTS - so make sure members and parents read through this.  It would be a great idea to sit down and do this together, so that nothing is left to chance or missed.​Go to our Director's Updates page for all the info.
​


The Spring Merchandise Sale has ended.
As promised at the March camp, your DMs have put together a practice schedule.  For all of the information, and for the Google Classroom Code, go to our Member Students page.

​
The link is now OPEN to pay for the tickets you reserved for the Rotary Music Festival.  Go to our LVW STORE page for the information and the link.
