Band Day

Last wednesday was the State Fair Band Day. Jay County finished an impressive 2nd out of 44 bands this year, 2 places better than last years 4th place finish. It's sad to have another track season over and done with but I'm glad at the same time. The kids this year did just awesome considering some of the temperatures we dealt with. I really enjoyed working with the staff so with the good kids it was a great summer from the staffing perspective. I hope to be back next year, and bring back a certain guard instructor as well, to do it all again.

Lotsa' Craziness!!!

So in the last couple weeks I've been super busy. Lots of things going down at work at the moment, mainly all good. The band season has pretty much came and went. Once the contests start it goes by in a FLASH. We got lots of 2nd's behind southside and a 3rd behind southside and richmond (i think). Last week was band camp which was defintely the roughtest to date. It was like having one full time job on top of another full time job where the second full time job is conducted 24 hours a day and in ungodly heat and humidity!!!

Yesterday was the ice cream social (minus the ice cream though me, Emilie, and Hart stopped by Dairy Dream) where the band put on its usual bad run through for the parents. Definitely not the best representation of what was produced by band camp. If you want the real deal show up Wednesday at state fair!
