New Prairie fans got their ini- tial clue as to what they could expect from their new band direc- tor, Mr. Mark Belsaas, when they saw them perform at the first football game. He put marching back into the program. Perform- ing intricate drill patterns to rous- ing marches, the band made the halftime breaks something worth remembering. The bands made the move to the concert stage with little diffi- culty. Their repertoire delighted music-lovers and the wide variety of selections enabled the budding musicians to demonstrate their skills.
