excellence. In addition to this main goal, there are several other

derivatives. First, the Pit Orchestra must produce a group that works well

as a team. Secondly, that team must cooperate well with the other factions

of Staples Players. These components will benefit the Pit Orchestra, adding

to the main objective. However, it will also be beneficial to the entire

Staples Players Organization, making for an excellent production. If these

three objectives are met, the Pit Orchestra will be a prolific addition to

productions of Staples Players.

There are several requirements incumbent on the achievement of these goals:

1. Previous Pit Orchestra members need to encourage other musicians to join.

2. Previous Pit Orchestra members need to encourage freshman to join.

3. Each Pit Orchestra member is responsible for attending every rehearsal

and practicing the music thereof.

4. Each Pit Orchestra member is responsible for attending every Staples

Players meetings or derivative thereof.

5. Each Pit Orchestra member is responsible for showing respect to all

directors involved with a production.

6. Each Pit Orchestra member is responsible for showing respect to his or

her fellow musicians, singers, actors, technicians, and other Staples

Players members.

7. Each Pit Orchestra is responsible for choosing one member who will be

responsible for morale.

8. Each Pit Orchestra is responsible for choosing one member who will be

responsible for setting up the stand lights.

9. Each Pit Orchestra member is responsible for helping to strike the pit

10. Each Pit Orchestra member is responsible for helping to strike the set

the 2000-2001 Pit Orchestras to set the example for years to come. With

this example set, the Pit Orchestra will continue to be a great contribution
