Memories Under the leadership of Mr. McCoy the NHS band had a very successful year. The band played at the football games, and a smaller pep band sup- ported the rally squad at the basket- ball games. Several concerts, featuring the band and small instrumental groups, added highlights to the year. To earn money for the annual band pic- nic, members held a spring concert. The band attended the County Mus- ic Festival at Taft on March 3U and later the band contest held in Corval- lis. Karen Beal directed the band as student leader. Assisting President Ierry Dudley were Vice-President Iohn Ward, Secretary Iudy Thomas, Treas- urer Cliff Hunter, and Sergeant-at- Arms Rod Price. 3 I I t lf l 4 TLSKQWWAL 1 6 in ' .ww i V A .,.:':77' Top: NHS Pep Band supports.
