2 INFORMATION SHEET SPECTATOR PARKING The parking structure allows us to offer very limited spectator parking on campus. The best part is, the parking is FREE! Spots will fill up very quickly, so inform your booster parents to come to the show early to secure a spot. Entrance to the parking structure will be at the end of Mustang Run (see included campus map). Once the parking structure is full, spectators will need to find the best available parking. CHECK-IN Check-in for all busses, equipment trucks and support vehicles is located near the parking structure, upon entrance onto the campus grounds. All vehicles will enter at the end of Mustang Run and proceed to the check-in table (see included campus map). All vehicles will obtain a parking pass at check-in based on the number supplied in the WBA application. Our volunteers will then route the vehicles to the assigned parking area. It takes about 10 minutes to walk from the Check-in table to the performance entrance, so please plan your warm-up and route accordingly. BUS AND EQUIPMENT VEHICLE PARKING We would greatly appreciate it if you have all your vehicles (buses and support vehicles) arrive at all at once. Bus and equipment vehicle parking is assigned and very limited on our campus. There will be NO room for rehearsing in the parking lot. Please rehearse in the areas designated on your campus map, observing all silent zones. You will be informed of your bus parking location upon check-in. No vehicles will be allowed on the campus unless a parking pass is properly displayed. WBA PASSES, CHAPERONE AND STUDENT ENTRANCE Bands are required to use their WBA staff passes issued to them earlier this year. WBA staff passes are good for entrance into the stadium. Based on the publicity sheet, performing student members will be given a wristband in the director s packet. Per WBA guidelines, schools will receive the same number of chaperone wristbands as the number of staff passes received earlier this year. Only chaperones and field helpers with a wristband will be allowed free entrance and must sit on the visitor s side of the stadium with their school. The videographer for your unit MUST also have a wristband and video pass to gain access into the stadium press box to videotape your school s performance only! Any chaperone or pit helper without a wristband will be asked to purchase a ticket for entrance into the stadium. TICKETS & PROGRAMS Tickets can be purchased at the Ticket Booth located near the south end of the stadium. A purchased ticket is valid for the entire show. Ticket prices are $12 for adults, $7 for children under 12 years old, $7 for seniors over 65 years old, $7 for Military personnel (in uniform or identification) and free for children under 5 years old. Programs are $5. This year, we will accept debit and credit cards.

3 INFORMATION SHEET VENDOR BOOTHS We have retained the services of several vendors located outside the stadium gates. Encourage your students and parents to patronize and support all the vendors at the tournament. WARM UP AND REHEARSAL AREAS Please use the upper field, quad area and any other areas on campus to warm-up, observing all silent zones and facing away from the stadium. The tennis courts are a quiet zone and are reserved as a guard warm-up area only. Again, there will be NO room for rehearsing in the parking lot. There will not be a concern unless the band warming-up interferes with the performing bands or other bands in the warm-up area. Please be aware of your time as your group proceeds to the warmup area, staging area and ultimately the performance field. PIT EQUIPMENT AND TOW VEHICLES Vehicles used to tow pit equipment and/or props, which will be allowed on the rubber track ONLY, may not be larger than a golf cart or quad AND must be operated by an adult. NO CARS OR TRUCKS ARE ALLOWED IN THE STADIUM AND NO VEHICLE OF ANY KIND IS ALLOWED ON THE ARTIFICIAL TURF FIELD!!! This is Saddleback Valley Unified School District policy so please make sure your pit parents are aware of this special restriction. Your cooperation in this matter would greatly be appreciated. BAND ANNOUNCEMENT AND ENTRANCE Your band will be announced from the information provided on your application and at check-in. New this year, WBA has standardized the introductory announcement. Please refer to the WBA Handbook should you have any questions. In the event of inclement weather, the show will be moved into the gymnasium and a judged stand still performance will take place. PERFORMER & CHAPERONE SEATING ALL performing members and chaperones are required to sit on the visitor side of the stadium, until that seating area is full, at which time your school will be directed to a selected seating area. Please make sure that all performers wear a wristband provided in the packet and chaperones have a Pit Pass in order to gain access into the stadium

4 INFORMATION SHEET HOSPITALITY Hospitality will be located in the first classroom outside the stadium entrance. We are here to provide you and your staff with complimentary meal service and refreshments. Please feel free to visit with your staff and enjoy a great meal! Admission to this area will be permitted to those who have an official Western Band Association staff pass ONLY. FIRST AID The First Aid Trailer will be located next to the portables classrooms and the vendor area. Consult the campus map for the specific location. Please see any volunteer for assistance in the case of an emergency. COOKING The Saddleback Valley Unified School District does not allow open fire cooking anywhere on campus, other than the designated concession area. No open fire cooking will be allowed by attending schools. Please relay this message to your booster parents. LOST AND FOUND Lost and found is available and will be located at the Volunteer Check-in Booth located near the main gymnasium. TRASH DISPOSAL Every effort is made to provide trash containers that are easy to locate and accessible. Please remind your students to use these receptacles when disposing of all trash. Also, you may use the recycle bins located throughout the campus. TOBACCO AND ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES The Tournament in the Hills is held on the campus of Trabuco Hills High School. Absolutely no smoking or alcoholic beverages are permitted on the premises. Please review this very important rule with your students, staff and booster parents.
