The MHS Marching Band had their awards banquet this evening. It was a great event for the band students and their families. I helped decorate the room and arranged the food for the evening. Josh hung out with friends the whole evening and had a great time. Mr. Brooks and Mr. Quamo spoke about the band program and then the awards were given. Josh received an award for participating in marching band for 4 years. I'm so proud of Josh and how hard he has worked these past 4 years. He played the clarinet for the first 2 years and the sousaphone the last 2 years. He never played the sousaphone until his junior year and he had to learn how to play it. Marching with a sousaphone is different than the clarinet, so he had to relearn marching techniques. He worked hard and never complained. He loved marching band and will really miss it. Me too!!!

Josh and I wanted to give the sousaphone players a gift to remember this remarkable season. I made engineering prints of this collage for the kids. It was a hit among the sousaphone players and hopefully a keepsake. Three of sousaphone players are seniors and will be missed.
