Sacrifice by students wins two firsts As the cadence began, the Round Rock Dragon Marching Band prepared to assemble on the field. As they fell into attention, the announcer over the PA. began the halftime show, .. and now presenting the Pride of Drag- onland. This brought the crowd to their feet cheering the band on. The precision of the performance was due to the many hours of group and individ- ual practice that band members sacri- ficed for the program. Mr. Larry Jones, head band director, stressed that Round Rock band stu- dents are extremely talented and well trained, always performing to the best of their ability. With the beginning of the 1980-81 year, a new program developed in the band department. This new development was JV band. This new program was due to the increased enrollment in band. Both marching bands performed well in the non-U.l.L. contests. The var- sity band received second place for their performance with the Dragonettes in the Parade of the Champions held in Dallas. The JV band participated in the Westlake Marching Contest. Jones rel- ated that Round Rock accomplished what most schools in Texas can not touch, both marching bands receiving first divisions in U.l.L. competition.
