Because the rallies were held either right before or after school, band members performed standing instead of seated as they used to do.

Band members performed at all the home games and all but one of the out of town games, due to much rain and flooding.

During August, while other students were tak- ing their last flings at Port A, band members were learning and then perfecting their new routines. With half time drawing near, John Radarte gears up for the performance to be given. Band members gave up much free time to be able to give a good half time performance.
