A Big Thank You to:

Alston Pettigrew, Eddy Stein, Trent Loftis,
Susannah Ryan, Kirk Cavender, David Reynolds, Graham Whitley, Eric Luther, Nolin McAlister, Kevin McDonald and Curtis Baker who volunteered their time to work during Band Camp. Their Assistance proved to be invaluable to our program and our students. The Band Camp budget was cut drastically in the latest round of reductions, and we simply would not have been able to cover all of the sectionals and rehearsals without these alumni members who gave so un-selfishly of their time and talents!!!!
