LG. Marches With Spirit The marching band had another busy year. The first activity was a pa- rade in Saratoga, which Mr. Bostwick, the band director, explained was an ex- cellent warm-up for the many field shows and parades to come. The band picked up some trophies, including a second place in the West Valley Band lamboree. The members started prac- ticing in the summer, doing drills and formations to improve their marching ability. The practice continued through the beginning of the school year in third period every day. The drum sec- tion hired an instructor at the begin- ning of the year, and they had fund raisers and a bowl-a-thon to buy new equipment. They worked hard, and it all paid off in the end with a fourth place in the Pacific Grove Parade - a first for the L.G. Drummers. The tall flag team was larger than usual, with sixteen members. Head Lee Mayer organized many practices in order to keep the large group synchro- nized. junior Nelia Gallant said, The best part was going on band trips, espe- cially to Pacific Grove. Our team was like one big family. Small flags had a good year, winning firsts in all of their competitions. They ended the year with first places from the Saratoga and Los Gatos parades and received a first in the West Valley band competition. The members started practicing in the summer and continued having practices almost ev- ery day after school in the fall. lunior Katie Francis said, Being in flags took a lot of time and dedication. There were those days when I was so sick of prac- ticing, but it all paid off in the parades and competitions. The team was headed by Sandy McBride and co- headed by Carolyn Shaw. Senior Audrey Park commented, The drill team spent a lot of time to perfect routines and dances, but the best part was being with my friends and making new ones. The drill team went to camp in the summer at U.C. Santa Cruz, where they were evaluated and learned new routines. The team was headed by Dorinda Holler and Stephanie Russell. 56 Organizations V A Y . viii-sim.-nuns r ,I . -- 5.-M . rf .....................::' .L V 2.71-N-.V -V-wav...--M sn-mm-r .K ami- HL ' U-Q-D S-'iii' - ,,, J, ip- 1 l Ivglall- 'i 'V A .i- - ..3n1v-nv , -ui 4.

M ' S p ' ' t H ' h Members of the concert band had a full schedule performing at band festivals in May and playing at the California Music Educators' Solo Ensemble Festival where they were judged on playing abili- ty. Three members were in the presti- gious County Honor Band: Audrey Nis- sen, clarinet, Kelly Sprowl, bass clarinet, and Cassandra Kachulis, trumpet. Au- drey Nissen was also selected to play in the State Honor Band. Most of the pep band members were enthusiastic marching band musicians who enjoyed playing and acting crazy at j.v. games. They attended j.v. football and many basketball games as well as swim meets, pep rallies, and community service activities such as the opening of Walgreen's Drugstore, The Great Race, and the Los Gatos Christmas Parade. The pep band was directed by Mrs. Bing- man and the student director was Deb- bie Sniderman. The pep club was a very spirited orga- nization comprised mostly of cheerlead- ers and freshman girls. Many of the stu- dents were active in the club to get pep points, which were used when trying out for spirit squad. The pep club livened up football and basketball games, help- ing the cheerleaders ignite spirit among fans. 358 Organizations I'-iitfkltlil Concert band.
