Blue Star Regiment I Band Pulls I Through nan hen you walk through a storm hold your head up high . . . . The first few words of the Blue Star Regiment ' s traditional theme song seemed even more appropriate at the start of the 1984 band season. Due to many changes made by new director Charles Craig, the group appeared to be caught in a storm. But, with constant practice, the BSR managed to pull through. It seems like all I ever do is practice! Everyiime I ' m finished, there ' s always more! exclaimed freshman Matt Shoaf. One of the reasons for the many hours of practice was the level of difficulty of the show. One of the hardest things to do was to learn and perform the mu- sic, said Tami Walters. The Regiment played a variety of different music, in- cluding arra ngements such as Fire- bird Suite and the I8I2 Overture by Tchaikovsky. Although the group ' s placings weren ' t as high as in past years, there was just as much fun, and the winning, losing, laughing, and crying were all part of what brought the group closer togeth- er. We were really disappointed after we placed 2nd at our first competition, stated leanne Plette, But that just seemed to make us work harder and more as a whole. Craig summed the season up, The kids are great! Working with the BSR is definitely a once in a life time exper- ience! i- Heads held high, the drill learn takes pride in their periormance. The audience ' s reaction to our periormance makes all of us very proud ol what we ' re doing, said Jodi Brandom. 1 66 organizations
