🎶🥁 TWO SUPERIOR PERFORMANCES! 🥁🎶 The High School Band brought home another Superior Rating (Highest Honors) at Minden Band Fest, making it FOUR CONSECUTIVE YEARS of Superior ratings! 🏆🎺 Today’s performance came with an uphill battle as we were missing two members of our Mighty Nine. After months of hard work, dedication, and practicing through rain, wind, and cold, this group stayed focused and rose to the challenge. All that hard work paid off, and they accomplished the goal they had been working toward all season! A special shout-out goes to 7th grader Carletta Herfel, who stepped up to the big leagues and played the quad toms with the high school band when we were down a player. We are so proud of her willingness to step up, take on the challenge, and help the team succeed! 🥁👏 -------------------------------------- The 7th and 8th Grade Band led the parade at Minden Band Fest with an outstanding performance, earning a Superior (Highest Honors) Rating at their first and only parade of the year! This talented ensemble of 27 musicians showcased straight lines, feet marching in tempo, and a powerful, full sound that could be heard all the way down the block! 🎺🎷 Four weeks of hard work, dedication, and marching through all kinds of weather paid off! We are incredibly proud of these students for their commitment, teamwork, and fantastic performance. They truly earned this recognition! 👏🎵

One act needs one or two pallets; we could have to make crates. If you have one, please let me know. Weirdly, I also need a rabbit's foot!
