Two Days (Band March Through, Passport Check, Google Cal)

Ho, Ho, Ho! Just TWO days to go! 

To families continuing to celebrate Hanukkah, and families celebrating Christmas today, our faculty and staff extend to each of you the warmest wishes of the season. 


Band “March-through” Practice - December 26  

First, an important reminder about tomorrow's band “march through” practice. For band members who are in town without a previously scheduled conflict, we are holding a refresher practice for 90 minutes. Please arrive at DGN beginning at 7:45 AM and report to the Field House. Practice begins at 8 AM, and will end at 9:30 AM. We will be indoors the entire practice; wear athletic shoes and clothing that is comfortable for moving!


Passport - Triple Check

All tour participants are asked to triple-check, and make sure they know 1) where their passport is located, 2) that the passport has been signed on the page above the photo, and 3) the passport is placed somewhere that they will be SURE to remember on Tuesday when it is time to depart for DGN. The very first thing students will do when they arrive for departure is to hand their passport to their assigned chaperone.


Adding the Google Cal Itinerary

We previously shared a link to add the tour itinerary to your personal Google Calendar. Some users have struggled with this, partially because our instructions were a bit misleading. You can only subscribe to a Google Calendar on the web, using a computer browser (calendar.google.com); if users clicked on our provided link directly from their phone, and tried to subscribe from the mobile Google Calendar app, it likely did not work properly.


If you are still working to sort this out, please open up this blog post on a computer web-browser, then click THIS LINK to trigger a subscription to the DGN London Tour Calendar.


After you have subscribed on a web-browser, go back to your Google Calendar mobile app:

  1. At the top left, tap Menu, and then Settings.
  2. Tap the calendar you want to view.
  3. Optional: To find more calendars, tap "Show more."
  4. Check or uncheck your preferred calendars. 

Be looking for a lengthy update tomorrow, with many important "final preparation" reminders!
