President Jo Van- deVenter and the parents of all music students had lofty goals of raising $50,000 to provide for music projects and new band uniforms. Some meet- ings were over-flowing with over 130 parents in attendance. “It was the most active group I ever had,” said Dan Neece, music director and boost- ers club advisor. Boosters sponsored two Christmas parade floats, trips for all music groups and special programs.

The carnival was hosted at the rodeo grounds with the lucky winner having the opportunity to win $5000. “We hoped it would be the biggest community event of the year.” Neece said. FINE ARTS MUSIC
