Fall Festival Information

Fall Festival: September 23rd @ Kalona Historical Village

Things to bring/wear:  You will need to wear blue jeans to the Fall Festival with your music polo.  If you do not have a music polo, you can borrow one from the Mid-Prairie Music Department.  Otherwise, please wear a black M-P shirt.  You will all have a few minutes of free time at the Fall Festival, so you can bring money to buy food/drinks while there.  Please remember that you need to have all food eaten/all drinks drunk BEFORE you get back on the buses to the high school.  There will be neither food nor drink on the buses.  Keep the buses clean and respect the bus drivers and school chaperones.

Schedule:

12:40 - HS Band and Choir load buses

12:50 - 7th/8th Band performs

1:00 - 6th Choir

1:10 - 7th/8th Choir performs

1:20 - HS Band performs

1:30 - LL HS Choir

1:40 - MC HS Choir

2:00 - HS Band and 7th/8th band march around town

2:20 - HS Choir Only students load bus at Fall Festival grounds

2:30 - HS Band students load bus at Kalona Library

You must ride the same bus to and from the Fall Festival.  No, you may not stay at the Fall Festival even if you have a note from your parent.  Everyone has to return to the High School via the school buses.  You also need to remember that there is to be NO food nor drink on the buses.  Eat/drink at the Fall Festival; don’t bring anything back with you.

Please remember the general rules of conduct.  You are all representing Mid-Prairie.  Be polite while waiting in lines, be aware of all the other people at the festival (elderly, children in strollers, etc.)  Also remember to respect the grounds at the festival.  People spend many volunteer hours taking care of the grounds and would not appreciate you trampling over the flowers.

You also need to be polite to the school chaperones.  If they tell you to do something (or to stop doing something) follow what they say.

Make sure you don’t “forget” what time you perform. Smile while on stage – have fun!

Sausage Gravy Dinner

The Annual Homecoming Pancake Supper has a bit of a change this year...  This year it will be a Sausage Gravy Supper on September 9th, from 4:30-7:15 in the HS Cafetorium.  Due to the construction, we won't be able to transport the large pancake griddle to the back of the school to cook our pancakes... and due to Homecoming and Fall Festival happening on the same day this year, we changed the date of our supper.

Friday, September 9th will be a busy night at the high school: we will be hosting our Sausage Gravy Supper, the 1969 Undefeated Mid-Prairie Football team (and cheerleaders) will be having a reunion, and the new Indoor Practice Facility will be hosting an open house.

All students in band and choir were asked to sell three tickets to this event.  All the proceeds help fund all the music camp scholarships through the Fine Arts Boosters.  It will be a great evening, so let us take care of supper and you can go cheer on the Hawks!
