Emerald Brigade by Stephanie Allen arching With Pride ith determination and pride the Emerald Bri- gade marched into an- other fall season led by Geoff Johnston and Matt Powers. After many long hours of rehearsals, learning new marching drills and memorizing music, the talented group of students were well-prepared for their competi- tions. I roughly practice about 15-20 hours a week, explained Stephanie Lane. Competitions began on October 3rd at the Escondido Tournament of bands. There they earned a superior rating. Be- tween competitions, the band also per- formed at football games. Fight songs and the Mob Squad promoted enthusi- asm among the students. Many students saw their hard work and dedication pay off in other areas as well. Andrew Heimbold believed, Being in band will give me an added edge in college acceptance. John Bishop looked towards the future when he stated, If you know someone in the band, you may see them on records or you may find yourself going to one of their concerts. The Emerald Brigade strived to do their best. Mr. Davis felt, The enthusi- asm and talent of this band is among the strongest, I have ever dealt with. It is with great pleasure and pride that they are part of the program. ff?
