A Step Ahead Of The Rest X ' 3e gbt by Matt Wester On a crisp, fall Friday evening, the familiar beat of the Maple marching band is heard through- out the Birmingham neighbor- hood. As one walks closer to Maple Field, the reflection of the stadium lights off the shiny, well- polished horn section draws the eye. The Seaholm Marching Band was directed by Tom Course and was led by two student field directors. Junior Mara Simich and senior Linda Cadaret led the 115- member marching band through many successful performances during the season. Playing during fifth period, the band devoted an hour and a half a day to practice. Junior Mara Simich told the story of this fall ' s band, We started out slow but with a lot of hard work and effort we turned out to be a great marching band. The band displayed their ex- pertise at football games, par- ades, and marching competitions. Although the band has not cap- tured any major titles they gave an excellent performance at the Dondero Marching Tournament. Being a part of the band helps a lot of people look down on band mem- bers, but what they don ' t realize is that band is a lot of hard work, is time consum- ing, and requires a positive attitude. - Paul Newton a person work on his present musical talents or explore new musical horizons. For many senior members, playing in the band was second nature after completing several previous years of marching. For freshmen the band was an excellent opportunity to get in- volved. Sophomore drummer Mike Keppler reflected on his experi- ences, Being a member of the marching band helps one to feel the Seaholm spirit and unity that can be displayed in a group of individuals. For athletes and students the appearance of the marching band brings out school spirit and determi- nation. Hats off to the Seaholm Marching Band who provided enter- tainment and school unity through- out the season, by encouragingly shaking their plumes in unison as drummers beat out a sound support from the bleachers. Hoping to lead the home team on to victory, seniors Alisa Troelsen and Megan Markee pull cheers from the crowd as junior Mara Simich looks on. photo bv Doug Engle Turning his longtime hobby Into a school activity, senior Paul Newton keeps the beat and brings on cheers from Seaholm football fans. photo by Doug Engic MARCHING BAND 53
