Because of the dedication of the band, the sounds of drums and trumpets filled the air at many basketball games and athletic events. Ninty-five students participated in Lakeridge's Pep, Marching, and Concert bands. They devoted a substantial amount of their time to practices preparing for games, musical performances, and a number of competitions. Early in the year, the Dance Team, Flag Team, and Marching Band traveled to Kelso, Washington to enter a Northwest band competition. They were led by drum majors Tom Annestrand and Tom Waggoner and came away with third place in the A division. The Pep Band was directed by Tod Kelly and Denise Trefren. The Concert Band performed in three concerts. A number of competitions, and the musical Camelot, under the direction of Rick Tippets. Lakeridge was also involved in a solo competition in which forty Lakeridge students performed. Like many other groups at Lakeridge, the band should be applauded for showing their true Pacer spirit. 1. Drum Major Tom Annestrand plays a solo at a home football game. 3.
