Band Banquet

Last Saturday was the annual Band Banquet that is the culmination of the marching season. The directors give out awards (Most Outstanding Senior, Junior, etc, Bandsman of the Week, Etc), they recognize the Seniors , Drum Majors, Librairians, Section Leaders, etc, say all these nice things about our kids, you get my drift. Jonathan was selected as one of the Most Outstanding Seniors, Bandsman of the Week and of course Drum Major.


Jonathan's dates for the evening

Drum Majors

Some may know that myself and Cory Noland had made a promise to the band that if they qualified for the State Finals, we would shave our heads ,probably not the smartest thing we've ever done, but we made the offer anyway. Unfortunately, they didn't qualify for the state finals, but did finish 7th out of 22 bands at Area which was a great accomplishment for a band of 100 members, w
hen they were competing against bands that were 150-200+. So at the banquet, Cory and I gave everyone a glimpse of what they missed.
Wow what ugly bald guys.

Looks like you guys had a great time! I would have loved to see you, Dad, with your head shaved. Maybe you could promise Jonathan that you'll shave your head if he goes to State!
