2009 Parents' Day Schedule

With kickoff for the OU vs. Baylor game set (2:30 PM CDT, with regional coverage on ABC), the University Band department has set the schedule for 2009 Parents Day, shown below:

PRIDE OF OKLAHOMA PARENTS’ DAY 2009 GAME DAY SCHEDULE
Time	Event	Location

9:00 AM - 11:00 AM	Pride Rehearsal	Everest Training Center

We have posted a more specific gameday calendar (as usual) at our sister site for OU Band Alumni, where you can get other information about ongoing Pride events. Check that page as Parents’ Day approaches in case there are any changes, but we’ll do our best to post them here as well.

If you’re new to campus and OU Football, please take a moment to read the gameday visitors’ guide for tips on traffic, parking, and in-stadium rules. You’ll arrive before most fans do, so traffic will be lighter, but not trivial. Plan ahead!

Meanwhile, if you need more information immediately, or would like information on "Pride Wear" shirts and other apparel with Pride of Oklahoma family member messages (dad, mom, granddad, future member, all that great stuff), please contact Betty Wiseman. And for last-minute announcements, please sign up for our mailing list so you get Betty’s messages directly in your own inbox.

See you all on Saturday!

Parents Day: October 10!

We now know that 2009's Pride Parents Day will be on October 10, when OU hosts Baylor one week before the annual Red River Rivalry. (Yes, OU vs. Texas is on October 17th this year. I don't know why. I wasn't consulted. You can see the entire October football schedule at the calendar for the OU Band Alumni by clicking here/)

We don't know when kickoff will be, and we probably won't know until 13 days before the game (or, if the networks exercise an option, until just six days before the game, but that's less likely). Once we know kickoff time, we can finalize exact schedules and get them out to you.

Your Pride student will get more information about the event in his or her orientation packet after this year's auditions are complete and the band is set. The pre-audition packet contains instructions for students to use if they have questions. If you have questions, please feel free to contact Betty Wiseman by clicking on her name to send her E-mail.

More news as we get it!
