Second Row: Bobby Troxell, Dennis Klepinger, Tim Sanders, Danny Rodeman, Teresa Under the direction of Mr. Frank Bienas, Shenandoah 's new director, the band worked hard to become better musicians. During the marching season, the band performed at the Middletown Lions Club Fair Parade, the Sulphur Springs Community Day Parade, a contest at Ball State University, and the lndiana State Fair Band Contest. The band put in a grueling summer of marching and a week of hard work at band camp. Although the work was hard, a high placement of twenty-first was awarded on band day. Drum Major for the summer was Stan Smith and Debbie Webb was Head Major- ette. During the school year the first task of the band was performing at home basketball games.

The next task was the district solo and ensemble contest held at Ball State University. At this event 33 individuals from S.H.S. attended. Seven students went on to State competition at Indianapolis. This achievement by our band was a great one. The one money making project the band had was a magazine sales drive. The band surpassed their goal by selling over 33,000 worth of magazines. The band developed higher standards to master the hardest music ever put before them. They participated in the organizational band contest held in April. All students received superior and excellent ratings. Mr. Bienas immediately gained the respect of the band members, and we hope he will be with us for many years to come. bacher.

For their work and performance of Bye, Bye Birdie the cast and crew received a standing ovation. ln April, the Dramatics Club went to Ball State University to participate in a contest. Although the actors didn't receive a trophy, they did place high in the contest. Students performed The Lottery a one-act play, and read selections from SPOON RIVER ANTHOLOGY.
