Friends and Family Day - What you need to know!

We are getting so close to the end of our summer season!  We have updated the LVW Website with the last few major posts of the year.  You can find information in two separate posts on the following:

• Daily Itinerary and Schedules for June 28 - July 5
• Parade, Packing, Housing, Activities Information for June 28 - July 5

Volunteer Needs 
The Volunteer sign up has been updated with needs for the rest of the summer.  There are plenty of spots open!  In fact, it was just updated on Friday morning, so you can pick your favorite spots before they get taken!  Go to the LVW Volunteer Sign Up Form to check out the volunteer needs.

LVW Friends and Family Day
Tomorrow, June 23, is the LVW Friends and Family Day at KML.  MANY have indicated they will be eating the meal and attending the special afternoon performance.  In fact, as of right now (more are being added throughout the day today) there are 220 guests expected!  Thank you for your interest and support of LVW!

Here are a few points of information for tomorrow's event:
1.  Volunteers needed for the following:

• Food Preparation and Serving - you can simply "report to the Commons" if you are willing to help
• Uniform Training - We would like more parents to become familiar with the LVW Uniforms and how they are distributed prior to and after performances.  If you can help, Mr. Adrian will have some "Uniform Training" as the LVW members are changing into uniform following the meal, and again after the performance is over.  No need to sign up.  Simply show up!

2.  If you are bringing a side dish or a dessert:

• Bring them to the KML Commons when you arrive
• PLEASE - if possible bring your food to share in a disposable container.  If not, be sure to pick up your serving dishes before you leave.

3.  We are asking for a $5 donation for all who are eating the meal.  We will not have cashiers - rather, we will have a few donation boxes in the Commons where you can simply drop off your donation.  Feeding an additional 200 mouths is not inexpensive, so we really appreciate your willingness to donate to the meal!

4.  Eating the Meal

• The food will be served from inside the KML Commons (Volunteers needed!)
• We will have tables set up for the food donations and the items provided by LVW
• We will have over 300 people eating!  There aren't that many tables and chairs in the KML Commons, so we are strongly suggesting that you bring along some picnic chairs/blankets for eating your meal.  After all, it will finally be a nice day outside!

5.  Parking

• There will be a junior theater performance going on in the KML PAC in the afternoon
• Please don't park in the PAC lot
• There should be ample parking in the "Upper Lot" as well as in the main parking lot

6.  The Performance

• LVW will be performing in a few places, including the KML Track/Football Field and on the driveway entrance to the KML Campus
• Seating will be available in the Football Bleachers
• You can film and follow along from inside the track while the band is marching on the track
• LVW will do a "simulated parade" of our new tune and drill, Sinfonia Voci" on the service drive that enters the KML Campus. 
• LVW will do a "standstill performance" of all of their music - this is a good opportunity to get your videos of the music from beginning to end!

This day will provide you with the BEST OPPORTUNITY to get your photos and video!  This is the purpose of the performance.  We want you to get "Up Close and Personal" with the band on this day, rather than trying to get video along a parade route!  Please see the LVW Parade Etiquette post for our family parade guidelines.

Thanks so much for your continued support of LVW!  We pray that the Lord would bless our day of fellowship with the extended LVW Family!
