,s N y , - I Big band earns big honors Highlighting the band's suc- cessful year was a first-place trophy in the Lincoln Homecoming Parade, October 26. Tom Higgins, band doing, said Tom Higgins. To finance their new uniforms, band members sold magazines. Free pizza was given to the group director, attributed their high ratings to the large size of the band which helped the sound. The talent and hard work as well as the size of the band also brought success. We've improved so much in the last four years that now we can beat Fatima which is our lifetime goal. l'm very proud, said Jessica Peters, drum major. Although freezing rain and cold weather threated to hamper attend- ance at the Christmas concert, the audience was large showing the support of parents and friends. I think that we finally are getting more experience. This helped in performances because a higher percentage knew what they were that sold the most magazines. Monthly free pizza also rewarded the band sections who played the best during that month. lt's the biggest band we've ever had, said Mr. Higgins. During May, the Band Boosters congratulated six talented band members with a free dinner at Red Lobster for their participation in state contests in Columbia. The clarinet quartet, consisting of Jessica Peters, Aimee Waggoner, Monica Monroe and Peggy Mulvania, earned a two rating. v-i8hLsbi-Q...4-- In top form, the Marching Band performs at the Christmas Concert.
