 Marching Band

Marching Band
The Kids who play sports seem to get a lot of recognition. But have you ever thought of all the physical effort it takes to be in the marching band? It also takes a lot of dedication. The band kids have a hard time finding a Summer Job that will accommodate Band practice. They practice several evenings during the summer then there is BAND CAMP. This year camp was held the last week in July; 12 noon until 9PM. This just happened to be the hottest week we have had all year. I had trouble handling the heat and humidity when I went out to talk to the Band Director around 7 in the evening. The kids were marching like it was no big deal. I know some of these kids had put in at least a half days work in the melon fields or elsewhere before coming to camp. I don’t think band kids get enough recognition. So I’m trying to let people know the Band deserves just as much honor as the Sports teams. Our South Knox Marching Spartans, or as they are known as
“The Spartan Pride Marching Band”
has already started marching season and winning honors. They were First place in their class at the Indiana State Fair Band Day August 5. The Spartan Pride was invited back to perform in exhibition later that evening. Good Job Band
(I guess you have figured out I’m the Grandparent of a Band Member, but hey they really do work very hard. I was in the band a long long long time ago and sorta remember what it was like)
