Million Dollar Band provides entertainment for CHS audiences As the football team exited, the announcer introduced Clark High School’s Million Dollar Band. At the sound of the whistle, the 61 musicians marched onto the field. Under the direction of William F. McMoslcy. the marching band provided half-time entertainment during all home games. In preparation for their shows, the band held summer practices two weeks prior to the start of school and continued their additional practices during the football season. Maintaining their reputation for being the dancing band , the group executed dance routines to popular music throughout the season. In October, the band performed at the annual Half-Time Show Review which was held at the Las Vegas Silver Bowl. An addition to the band was the purchase of their new concert uniforms, tuxedos and long dresses in bright yellow. Money for the uniforms was earned through fund raisers such as bake sales. The concert band competed at the annual Clark County Music Festival. The jazz bands competed at the district level and also attended the Reno International Jazz Festival.
