Linda Hosler and Becky Espinoza work hard play- ing their bass clarinets. The 1974-75 school year kicked off a campaign for new band uni- forms. The Band Parents and students decided that the old uniforms may not make it another thirteen years. A committee of parents and students formed to design a new uniform that could be used for marching and con- certs. The necessary 51526, O00 was raised by sponsoring many projects. This was accomplished in one year. The School Board donated 510, OOO towards the uniforms. Some of the money raising projects included a Dinner-Dance at Springfield Oaks, a rock-a-thon, Tag Day Sales and many personal donations from members of the community. The band also held an exchange concert with Belleville. An addition was made to the ln- strumental Music Department when Miss judy Peters joined the faculty. Miss Peters' experience includes a year studying in France at a saxo- phone conservatory. The band also had an executive board comprised of students elected by fellow members of the band. Duties of the executive board were to resolve any problems that occurred during the year. Randy Thompson displays the new band uniforms at a Board of Education meeting.
