Ridge Community High School and Haines City High School are joining for a special 8th grade band night on Friday, October 28th! The event will coincide the Ridge vs. Haines City football game. This is a great time for our students to experience some of the exciting opportunities that both high schools offer for our band students. Students will be able to perform with their future high school in the stands to help cheer on the teams. The music is fun and exciting. Students are sure to enjoy this event!
​
Students should wear their black DSA shirt and jeans. It is recommended that students also bring their DSA jacket as the evenings in the stadium can be cool.  Students should have their instrument, music flip folder, music, and lyre.  Snacks and water will be provided. If students are interested in eating anything else they will need to bring cash.

The address for Ridge Community High School is 500 Orchid Dr, Davenport, FL 33837. When you turn into the main parking lot the stadium is on your left. The band room is the first building on your right.

​Enter the parking lot next to the football stadium. Let the attendant know that you are performing with the band. If you do, they should let you in without paying for parking. Parents and student performers that enter with the band will be admitted for free as well.
