Chattanooga camp prepares band for competitions Going to band camp in Chatta- nooga was one of the trips that high- lighted the year for the band. A week of concentrated marching, beginning August 20, helped pro- duce the halftime and contest xshows performed by the band this year. The band began their marching contest competition by participating in the Vanderbilt Open Marching Competition in Nashville on Oc- tober 7. Next the Marching Band com- peted in the UT Marching Contest on October 28 at Neyland Stadium. Receiving good ratings at both contests surprised and disappointed the members and the director. Try-outs for concert band were held on December 7 and 8. Under CQ D7 if all ' ' --M... Ll the direction of Mr. Ray King, the concert band gave several perfor- mances, beginning with their Christmas Concert on December 17. For concert competition, the band entered the UT Concert Compe- tition on March 15 and the Dogwood Arts Festival parade and concert competition in April. The band re- ceived honors at both contests.
