Concerts entertained and supported activities This year the band is very hard working, and skilled. The students care about how they sound and how well they perform. I am very pleased with them, said Conductor Charles Brumbaugh. The LHS band provided enter- tainment for the public, supported athletics by performing at football, boys' basketball, and girls' basket- ball games, and at the school's first birthday party. Their performances consisted of several field shows at football games, which required intri- cate marching maneuvers. Brian Warnick said, Mr, Brumbaugh has really developed our marching pro- gram. The pep band was always on hand at the games to pep up the players and their fans. Chosen band members attended Interschool in Star Valley where they learned how to play the concert songs with students from other bands. Then they gave a concert for the Star Valley public. During the'year, All-State mem- bers were chosen to go to Gillette - Misty Platts, Jeff Schwab, Brian Warnick, and Kellee Eyre. They pre- pared a tape with difficult scales and rhythms and sent them into the judges, who then chose the best play- ers from the state to represent Wyo- ming's All-State Band Members. It I was a great experience that I will never forget. It taught me new tech- niques and styles to play my French Horn, Misty Platts said.

Team had vitality Shakespeare The Speech team had a very suc- cessful season this past year, becom- ing State 2A Champions.

Advisor Cary Cox said Taking State was a team effort. The individual team members grew a great deal. They all showed improvement. Before the season began, the par- ticipants began preparation. g'After deciding what category they are go- ing to compete in, they choose a reading thatls suitable for that cate- gory. lf they choose extemp, they do research and start reading current event magazines. Advisors Cary Cox and Relta Cox work with the indivi- duals. The participant must also pre- pare by psyching themselves up and lived again concentrating on the task, said Hicks. Meets usually lasted two days. Some meets included novelty eate- gories such as storytelling, joketell- ing and skits. LHS' skit at the Jack- son meet was cited by many of the team members as one of the funniest things they did all season. The team did a satire on the Mr. Rogers' Show, portraying Mr. Rogers as a child molester. The team placed sec- ond for their skit. Hicks said, 'Speech was a blast when we had free time. Our team found a lot of fun things to do. It was more fun than most people think. Su- san Apgood added, I enjoyed it be- cause it gave me the chance to meet new people and to travel around a lot. It was a great learning exper- ienee, added Susan Apgood. The Speech team is hoping for an equal or even more successful l987 season. R. Cox said, Since our team is basically sophomores, they will have a lot of time to grow and learn. Since we did so well this year, we should do even better the '87 sea- sonf' C.
