SERIGR D hey broke through hundreds of win- dows, walls and doors everyday — Vo matter how solid the glass, or how thick the bricks. They seeped in, in- vading every molecule of empty space with rich demanding music. Their talents brightened our pep rallies and football games. During halftime their intricate designs on field made those 20 minutes just a tad more entertaining. Although many of us didn ' t see them, the band blew the Judges away at contests. Many students had planned to be in band for a long time. When I was 9 I saw the band and I thought it was cool. It has been a dream of mine since then to be drum major. (I had to settle for assistant though), Senior Corky Speer said. Being in band didn ' t Just have to do with music, in fact it had many non-musical aspects; it helped the creative ability and the discipline which helped in all other areas of school. The students go through emotional highs and lows together; they learn to work with other types of people and learn to share, ' ' Di- rector Charles Kuntz said. Most members practiced eibout an hour a day. They had special sectionals to strengthen the unity of individual sections. We all spend so much time together, and we get so close that it ' s like a family. You win and lose as a group. We might get mad on the field, but when it matters we really stay together, Senior Christine Parrish said. SEE, SEE, ARENT L YOa PROUD?

What was that SPECIAL PURPOSE? Was it respect, popularity, mon- ey, the trips, was the guy girl you were infatuated with in it. was your mom in it and you were carrying on a family tra- dition? Why, why. why. why? I feel strongly about Christians being able to organize in a club. FCA is a great program for athletes because it offers them many opportunities in their walk of life. ' ' Tammy Hollan said, a senior member of Fellowship Of Christian Athletes. It seemed some people Joined clubs to help them in their future careers.
