Vidal Celino will be the Pit Crew lead this year. Contact Vidal at 503-484-7131. He will be available to provide direction to folks who are unfamiliar with what needs to be done. Pit will be responsible for helping move the front ensemble, drum major stands, mic & stand, and possibly the props during the preliminary and final performances at each band event. During the awards that follow the prelim performance, we will find out what time we play in the finals. Once we have that time, Vidal will make an announcement as to when to meet back at the compound to move Pit for the finals performance.
