D99 Honor Band Europe 2020
Update August 22, 20219 - Our travel partner has successfully procured airline seats for our entire Band that 1) adheres to our developed itinerary, 2) includes non-stop flights (Chicago to Vienna, and Frankfurt to Chicago), and 3) keeps our entire Band together on the same flights. All three of these variables are important to us. Often, with large-group travel, students need to be divided into multiple flights. We are very happy to have found and reserved space on these non-stop Lufthansa flights which allows the entire group to travel together.
The contract required to hold the seats on these particular flights requires that we MOVE UP our timetable for tour registration. The previously published deposit due-date of November 1st has been bumped up to September 20. All other payment dates remain unchanged.
This adjustment also requires that we move-up our required Tour Roll Out Meeting. Previously scheduled for September 24, we will now hold the meeting three weeks earlier on Tuesday, September 3. Please note that DGS Marching Band students, and DGN Drumline and Color Guard students will have practices scheduled on September 3. Students should attend their practices; at least one parent/guardian should attend the required meeting to represent the student/family.
PLEASE CLICK HERE for the UPDATED letter detailing the next steps for tour registration, as well as the REVISED payment schedule and the required-meeting reminder.
Our official website for the Tour is now active, and may be accessed HERE. We encourage families to bookmark this page.
