Struttin’ their stuff When 100 students are combined with a new band director, positive things occur. Well, that’s exactly what happened this year with the band. Norman Adlington, Jr. returned after a two year absence and with him, he brought back the spirit the band needed to get its strutting feet on the ground for a busy year. The band attended camp in Ripley and along with the aches and pains came a new pre-game and halftime performance for the football season. The group participated in Fairmont's Band Spectacular, the Buckwheat, Forest and Strawberry Festivals, and the Christmas, Veterans Day and Memorial Day Parades. But the highlight of the year was the trip to D.C. as the state’s representative to the Cherry Blossom Festival. The band marches across Bridge Street during the Homecoming Parade held in October. Donald Carroll, freshman, practices for the trip to Washington, D.C.'s Cherry Blossom Festival. 24 — Band
