After marching season was over, some band members took time to practice music for the district's solo and ensemble contest. Students were able to choose from different classes of music, depending upon their ability and the difficulty of the pieces. Solos were done by many students including joselyn Meno and Mike Stockman while ensembles ranged from trios by clarinet players Kristin Lydahl, Ginger Chafin and Annette Birdwell to a forty-eight piece group of Wind Ensemble members. After hours of practice, band members played for judges. Students receiving a division one were given medals. As Tommy Bolin said, 'lPracticing for solo and ensem- ble takes a lot of work, but it's worth it. Renee Jennings added, nThe extra work helps everybody perform better. The awards for their accomplishments were ap- parently appreciated by the participants. PEP RALLIES are hectic for the band as it performs and cheers with the crowd. PRACTICING her solo is Maira Rivera. THE varsity drum section performs at theSpirit Spectacular.
