We will be the opening performers for German Day. This is a big event for the German-American community and one we're co-organizing. Let's make it a good one.
Once we are done, you are encouraged to stay and enjoy the day. Here are some things to know:
Alcohol: All alcohol must be consumed in the fence enclosed Beer Garden.
Band Refreshments: will be at a table next to the serving station in the beer garden with sandwiches, snacks and an ice chest with beer cans, soda, Gatorade and water for your water bottles.
Food and drink tickets: May be purchased at the volunteer table and used for any food and drink on sale.
Volunteers: If you’ve volunteered for a specific job other than performing, you’ll get a t-shirt and a $20 food ticket.

Directions
Getting There
Parking:
Music Concourse Garage is your best bet. Cost is $6 / hr or $30 for the day. Street parking is free up to four hours, but it goes fast.
Make sure you don't leave ANYTHING visible in your car. Golden Gate Park is a favorite spot of thieves.
Cases:
We will need to leave cases with friends and family in the audience. There is no storage available to us. The green room in the back of the band shell will be used by the Golden Gate Park Band. We are guests in their home venue.
Leaving:
When the Piedmont Children's Chorus finishes their part of the Opening Ceremony, we will exit STAGE LEFT. The chorus will be exiting stage right, and the Golden Gate Park Band will be coming in through the rear of the shell.
