ACA vs. Bullock County (details)

ACA vs. Bullock County
Friday, October 5, 2007
We will be leaving the school at 2:30 p.m. and stopping over at Eastchase to allow the kids to grab a bite to eat before heading over to Bullock County High School in Union Springs. Maps are available in the High School office. Be sure to send money for your child to eat along with the $10 transportation fee.

We should return to the school no later than 10:30ish Friday evening. Provided the Bus Driver follows our directions back home!!!

Just FYI on what happened this past Saturday following the band competition in Gadsden...

The driver of Bus 1 thought he knew a "shorter" way home. Apparently he missed several turns and wound up going around the world. Trust me, we were not thrilled at all!

Gary called the bus company first thing Monday morning to express our displeasure and was told that particular bus driver is the VP of the company and has a really 'good sense of direction'. To which Gary replied, "apparently not in this case!"

I've also been told "3rd party" that several of you tried to reach Gary and I on our cell phones. Neither one of us had any missed calls or messages from any parents. Please take a moment and program our numbers for such a case as this...462-3369 (Gary) and 462-3368 (Tracey).

Parent T-Shirts
I still have several parents that have not picked up their band t-shirts. I work at ACA in the High School office Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays between the hours of 7:30 a.m. - 3:30 p.m. Please stop by and pick up your shirt!!!
