653 Band is Successful by: Merideth Fike It took 50 marching players, a lot of talent, and dedication to make this year's Pittsburg Marching Show Band one of the best and most successful ln a long time. We've taken the first giant step in creating the big, exciting band that will be here soon, says band director of 12 years, Mr. Orrin Cross lll. Assistant director, new to P.H,S. was Mrs. Sherrie Van Nest. She commented, I'm very impressed with the quality, style, and overall performance of the band. Drum major, Becky Walker, led the band for the second consecutive year. She showed more confidence and style this year than she did last year. She also exhibited more authority over the band. Jerome Sandoval said, The band made the football games more exciting and it made you proud to be from Pittsburg when the band did so well. Along with playing all home-game shows, the band performed at the Walnut Competition where the band took fourth place, losing second place by only 4f1O of a point, and won 5600. The band also played at Cal Band Day, the second annual Columbus Day Parade. 1. Richard Bleck, Becky Walker, and Gino Carrera perform and dance to The Twist . The band is at the PittfAntioch game. Q.
