Does anyone know of any good Winterguard contests in the Dallas/Fort Worth area? I just want to watch them. =].

Okay, so time for an update! [lol] Letters There are 2 letters this week. Striking a responsive chord and There

To answer this question, the traditions that we've done in the past were taken away. We have a "freshman initiation", its when we have the freshman stand in front of the band while the seniors ask them, "What's your name? What do you play? Who's your favorite senior? And, what's your favorite dance move?" He took that away, he told me that it wasn't right to do that. I don't see how its wrong. Yeah, it looks like a little thing, but when you have been looking forward to doing that since your freshman year, it's a big deal. I was so mad when he told me that. Then, our 1st game, he kinda of did things in our favor, but then the 2nd game, he was a totally different person! We used to exchange a few seniors and officers with the other band, he said, "No, too many people are going." I told him, "I'll only take 3 plus myself." He just replied with, "NO!" Then we used to do "Roller Coaster", but he didn't like it, since it was a senior thing. Again, when I was a freshman, I looked forward to doing that. Yes, I am the Drum Major, but I still didn't do it, since he doesn't "approve" it. I noticed that, since he took over, the fun that we had in band, was gone. [i'm tearing up here.] I'm very sad that he kicked us out, because of our salute. It was our last game in one of the oldest stadiums in Texas. That night was Senior Night. But, if they [principals and directors] want to DEPRIVE us of a MUSICAL EDUCATION; then go ahead, I hope that they are happy that there's going to be lots students without a FULL musical high school education. And, yet they're wondering why the band is so small. THIS IS WHY! [sorry for the rant] Also, we have 3 directors. Head-Taught at 4 different schools, got degree in 1999 Assistant 1-Graduated college in DECEMBER 2006, first job Assistant 2-Had several jobs in West Texas, don't know how many jobs, nor when she got her degree.

Ready for some more?? The mother has a child in the band, he a sophomore...so lol...yeah you go! Also, it says that we were forewarned...I was not...I wasn't around when the directors said the warnings. ALSO! [sorry] Is giving push-ups considered Hazing?

Well I guess it's time for an update. One of our band moms, wrote a letter to the editor of our local newspaper. Here's the letter: Second Story: "Did Senior Night salute deserve band students
