Band and MV's Marching Blackhawks participated in many contests during the year. Besides the fair contest and the Bradford Pumpkin Show, the band marched at New Madison, Union City, and Greenville. Led by the majorettes and drum major in their snappy black and white uniforms, the band made an impressive appearance as they came down the street. After chorus tryouts, a Select Chorus was chosen for participation in the district and state contests. This body of students also represented the Valley at various civic functions.
