STRUMENT This year all instruments and luggage are loaded into the Band Trailer on Friday May 3rd from 3:00 – 4:00.

If you plan on taking a suitcase, bring extra cash to pay $20 each way! You may bring one Carry-On and one Personal Item (purse etc.) which are included with the airfare purchase

Toiletries, Band-Aids, Sun Screen, aspirin etc. You should consider sharing items like hairdryers with your roommates. The less you pack, the less you have to carry and worry about.

Reeds, valve oil, music folders etc.

ON BAG You will be allowed one carry-on bag and one personal item. The airline has a test door to make sure your carry-on is not oversized!

Uniforms will be hung in the trailer. You must have

formal dress shoes! No flip-flops, tennis shoes or anything other than a black dress shoe! Pack these in your suitcase or carry-on.

You will need money for meals, souvenirs, etc. The Tour Fee inclusions are listed above. This does not include any charges for your suitcase if you check it as baggage. Percussion: Double check the “Percussion Call” that Disneyland is providing. You will need to bring any Auxiliary instruments plus all your own sticks, mallets, and beaters. Wind Players: Each musician is responsible for their own instrument, music and related supplies. (mutes, reeds, etc.) Baggage: Each student is responsible for his/her own personal luggage. One carry-on bag is allowed. Be advised: Alaska Airlines has begun charging all passengers for any checked bag and overweight/oversized bags. These fees are quite expensive and are charged both ways. Disney Passports: Passports will be issued on Wednesday after we arrive at the hotel. DO NOT SIGN YOUR PASSPORT! Disney staff must witness you sign each day as you enter the park. Do not lose your passport.

Airline Tickets: Sometimes we are asked to use the self-ticketing computers. Be adaptable and be prepared. They may ticket us at the counter or we may use the electronic process. Please know your Confirmation Code. You will be issued a boarding pass when you present your photo ID and check your luggage.

Photo ID: All students must carry a photo ID for Disneyland and the airlines. Those that do not have a driver’s license can use school ASB cards.

******** There are no cameras/videos etc. allowed behind the staging areas at Disneyland. Do not bring these items to the Workshop or Concert. Also, no food or drink is allowed in the Workshop of Concert Staging area. Workshop Be ADAPTABLE! Disneyland has requested our seating arrangement and instrumentation requirements for the workshop. Some of you may need to play a “reasonable fact simile” for parts. i.e. There may not be Contra-Alto parts etc. Quickly and quietly find your seats. (similar to concert seating) For ease of logistics and set-up, you may not get to play the same part you play in class i.e. 1

st,

2nd

, or 3rd

. IT DOESN’T MATTER! Play the part on your stand the very best you can. If you are close enough to switch music, do so quietly and unobtrusively. Be personable! This is a time for courteous “Fun”. Work with your clinician. Enjoy his/her sense of humor. Laugh at the appropriate times! Pay attention. Work hard to benefit from what you are being taught. Concert Be ADAPTABLE and be PROFESSIONAL! We meet behind the scenes at Disneyland in the “Pre-Staging” area. There are dressing rooms and an outside area for warm-ups. Please pay close attention to the director’s instructions and the Disney staff’s instructions. Once backstage, please be very quiet. We will enter and exit stage left. Concert and Workshop Days This year because of our workshop and concert times, we will not be busing into Disneyland for these events. Instead, you need to load your instruments, music, and uniforms into the Band Trailer which will be driven through Disneyland security. In turn, students must meet at the Toon Town gate (tunnel) at the specified times where Disney staff will take us through a special gate to the pre-staging and workshop areas. DO NOT BE LATE! There is no room for error on these time frames! Do not wear sandals or flip flop shoes. They are not permitted in the concert/workshop areas.

Disney Passports

Our Passports are called “Park Hopper Passports” This will allow you to go back and forth between Disneyland and California Adventure on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, & Saturday.

Band Trailer Remember that our trailer with instruments and luggage will not return to Lynden until the following Friday May 17

th. We will practice marching outside without instruments. Be sure you can

function without the clothes and items in your luggage for a few days!

Student Demeanor Expectations

As with all school sanctioned events, Lynden High School District Rules and Regulations, as outline in the Student Handbook, are in effect and are to be adhered to by all tour participants. In addition, the nature of this type of trip requires unique and specialized considerations associated with group travel and overnight stays. Some examples include: 1. All students must “follow instructions the first time” given by supervisory personnel. (Directors, chaperones, motel security, Disney staff etc.) 2. Students must be at all tour specified locations at or before the required times. 3. Students are not allowed in motel rooms other than the room they are assigned. 4. Students must remain vigilant of and disassociated from outside influences. At no time may students leave with, ride in a private vehicle, or otherwise consort with those not traveling with Lynden High School Band. 5. Students are not allowed to leave assigned rooms after the evening room check has been completed. All doors will be marked with a security seal. Those rooms with broken seals will have earlier curfews and possible detention room assignment. 6. Students may never leave the motel alone. Everyone must operate on the “buddy system”. If you are going to the theme parks, McDonald’s, or anywhere away from the motel you must be with at least one other person from our group. One of you must have a cell phone. Keep the Emergency numbers on your person. 7. Please remember, Anaheim is NOT Lynden. Our first and foremost concern is with your safety. How you behave and react can have a direct impact on that safety. Be polite, courteous, and non-confrontational. If you have a problem or concern immediately contact a chaperone or another adult. Keep Emergency numbers on your person. 8. Keep your money and other personal valuables in a safe place. Do not let anyone including your roommates know where that “safe” place is! 9. Be sure to have the Emergency Phone numbers on your person at all times. 10. The Anaheim Plaza has a very nice Olympic-sized pool. Please be sure you have parent permission to use the pool as it is basically unsupervised. Parents must sign the form allowing you to use the pool. 11. Be responsible and mature! Remember...Your conduct and attitude determines our chance for future participation in music trips.

Traveling in 2013

This year we must again make many special allowances for not only heightened security but for recent changes in Alaska Airline Baggage Policies. Regarding what can and can’t be taken, it is recommended you visit the TSA web site for complete information at http://www.tsa.gov/ Many airlines, including our carrier, Alaska, have restricted the amount and type of baggage allowed. Alaska allows only one carry-on and one personal item. The carry-on item must be 10” H x 17” W x 24” L or smaller. The personal item should be able to fit under the seat! Any checked suitcase/luggage/instrument is $20 extra each way. It also must measure smaller than 62 linear inches that is the length plus the height plus the width. IMPORTANT – Any suitcase weighing more than 50 pounds costs an additional $50 one-way! The same restriction is placed on “oversized” baggage which will include our instruments but that charge could be up to $75 one-way! You can go to the Alaska Airline web site at http://www.alaskaair.com to read about the baggage restrictions and fees.
