Discipline and determination characterize the Dragon Band. The one-hundred twenty members of the Warren Area High School Band provided many and varied forms of entertainment at football games, concerts, and assemblies. For the iirst nine Weeks of the school year, the marching band rehearsed outside. After much hard work, the marching band developed many colorful and interesting drill routines, allowing a variety at each game. The Dragon Band further aided school spirit with pep songs from the stands. After football season, the band moved inside to prepare for its concerts and assemblies. The band's first perform- ance was December 8th at 'the Holiday Music Festival. March 16th was the night of the annual Band Concert with the band's final performance following in an assembly on March 23rd.
