Pep band exhibts F.L. school spirit With the growing spirit at FLHS, pep band performed at more home athletic events. To the band's lively beat, the cheerleaders and Rangerettes performed routines. Concert band surrendered rehearsals to allow practice time. Even though jobs and conflicting activities proved troublesome, pep band practiced after school. Bringing in new ideas for ranger and varsity bands was Director Paul Redmond. The ranger band was made up of sophomores who wished to further their musical ability. These twenty students spent an hour each day working on scales and marches. Varsity band performed in concerts and pep band throughout the year.

Flag corps adds style to parades As a result of injuries and indecision, the majorettes were forced into last minute alterations of their Homecoming routine. Uniforms were styled to match a Bicentennial theme. Throughout the year, the twirlers led the band in parades and civic duties. Drilling as a separate unit, the rifle Guard marched in community events. With counting and hours practice, routines were perfected. Funded by the Forest Lake VFW, the Rifle Guard washed cars to earn money. Adding color and a touch of flair to parades, the Flag Corps marched with the FLHS marching band. Routines consisted of high stepping precision marching and maneuvering flags in unision. Leading the corps through drill cadence was senior Sue Barrott.
