220 Ba LET THE MUSIC he 1987-88 Charg- er Band, including tall flags, had sev- enty-eight members. That's an amazingly large number of people, all of whom were interested in the same goal - enter- taining through music. Marching Band was an elective, but members usually entered the class with some knowledge of how to play an instru- ment. The band was com- prised of flutes, saxo- phones, french horns, trumpets, trombones, baritones, tubas, and per- cussion instruments. The band performed six times each semester, twice in parades, and four times in field competi- tions. Six to eight schools competed in each com- petition, and Agoura al- ways placed in the top three, often in first place. PLAY How was it possible for Agoura to do so well? Several people helped make the Charger Band one of the best. Drum ma- jor, Mike Stone, conduct- ed the competitions, and Eric Oifer conducted the 'I love to play the flute.' - jenny Prendergast band during practice. Bruce Tipton, a student teacher, and several other assistants also helped plan programs and taught the band to march in unison. The percussion instru- mentalists also received specialized instruction. When asked why she joined band, lenny Pren- dergast replied, I love to play the flute. The people are really nice, and par- ticipation in school activi- ties looks really good on college applications. Band director, john Mo- seley, added his enthusi- astic praise: lt was a good season. The kids did their best, and we appreciate their effort. Between the excellent in- struction and the stu- dents' dedication, Agoura High's Charger Band and tall flags continued to let the music play with style and quality. - jennifer Forman ws , ft, it gigs it W..
