Parade Day Details
Some last minute parade day details...
The parade starts at 1pm. You can arrive at the Moose Club anytime after 10am. If you can, arrive early and help us blow up balloons!
Please wear your kazoo band sweatshirt and hat. If you were not able to make a sweatshirt, then please just wear a white sweatshirt. This is mandatory to march with us in the parade. Also, please remember that there is no drinking on the parade route. There is plenty of time for that before and after the parade!
Following the parade, there is a party at the Knight of Columbus in Binghamton's South Side. Admission is free to kazoo band members, but you must get a wrist band from us before the parade if you plan on attending. The party features several of the pipe bands from the parade, and oh yeah, FREE BEER!
See you on Saturday!

Practice Four In The Can
Well Practice four is now past and only three more practices left! You know what that means, three weeks from this very hour(10:30)we will be getting those
Jell-O shots ready sample at the Moose for the pre-parade warm up party!!
Practice four was held at the AOH, it may have been a little "cozy" but I was so pleased with how good you guys all sounded. Maybe sitting so close to your fellow kazooers joined you all in unity! I want to thank Tracy and Jon for their adaptations of body movements and songs!! Great job!! *smile*
Out trusty head counter says we had 67 folks at practice, still a good turnout. Along with our seasoned Kazoo aficionados, we welcome yet more "newbies" to our growing kazoo family. Welcome Angel, Therese, Ellen, Jennifer, Judy, Sara, and returning member Mary. We hope you enjoy what we call "The High Holy Season" Some may celebrate St. Patrick's Day, the Kazoo Band celebrates "The Season."
This weeks practice will be back at the Moose. It also falls on Valentines Day (maybe Jon will buy us all chocolates) *smile*.
Sweatshirt Painting is Saturday Feb. 23rd at 10:00 am, bring a white sweatshirt and a hanger to transport your shirt home to avoid mishaps. Remember to buy your shirt a little larger. Paint is $3.25, all items will be provided, along with instructions on what you will need to do. AS I have said before, if you can not make sweatshirt painting please wear a white sweatshirt on parade day and we will supply green sashes for you to pin on your shirt. If you do not have a white shirt you can not march.
Parade Day we will need TWO banner carries (also with white shirts or Kazoo shirts)I believe two of our newbies Erin and Chris are working this. Please keep us posted E&C.
REMEMBER to bring your food donations for CHOW to practice, Jon has called up and ordered a third barrel.
Wrap-Up-Party is a GO! We will send out more information in March. We need firm RSVP's so we know how much food to order. The Date is Saturday, April 26th, Pat Kane will be playing. We take over the entire AOH hall and pub, it is a closed party just for kazoo members and guests. A fun time is had by all!!
I leave you with this Irish verse:
An Irish Person is never drunk
As long as he can hold onto one
blade of grass and not fall off
the face of the earth!!
