Well, these past two years, with Captain Debbie Louis, things have changed. The girls have worked hard. We put some dance in our routine to add a little more pep to the act, said Louis. Flags has, for the first time, gotten a 1 with the Thunderettes in Lincoln for auxiliaries. I was so proud of the flags. We got a 1, our first 1 and being my last year, it made me feel even better, said Kristin Harrison. The Flags had 1's all through the competitive season. They added color to the band when we weren't moving, said Scott Murphey. Many of the band members were proud of Flags because they got their act together and looked good. The Flags did routines for the pep rallies, half-time football and basketball, and anything else to make them more noticeable to the school. Co-captains Shannon Menke and Mandy Morgan said, Well, we hope they do just as good as this year was if not better. Flags have really gotten their act together and proved to the school they were as good.
