WELCOME ABOARD, EMILIE!

Emilie graduation photo

EMILY BOYES, SEEN HERE IN A RECENT PHOTO, HAS JOINED THE PATRIOT BAND STAFF FOR THE 2007 - 2008 SCHOOL YEAR.

For those of you who may be out of the loop, the school board hired Emilie Boyes (our illustrious student teacher from last fall, genious!) to take Miss Guise' place next year. Daddy V applauds the hiring (one of the few intelligent things the board has done recently) and looks forward to great things from Miss Boyes. For those of you who don't know, Miss Boyes was an integral part of the success of our guard program last summer, has been instrumental in the continued development of dance and guard at the high school, worked hard for us during the new guard clinic, is currently running dance/weapons/flag sessions every Tuesday night and was the creative force behind this summer's "Colors of Russia" show concept, including flag and uniform designs which are already in the works! Miss Boyes also teaches private lessons at Arts Place 2 days a week and is the instructor in our new "Music Major Boot Camp" class. All this while still trying to be a college student, preparing for a senior recital and making time for her understanding boyfriend. And you thought your life was complicated!

Again, welcome aboard Emilie! Jay County hasn't seen such a combination of brains, beauty and talent since................well, since they hired Daddy V in 1977 - a mere 30 years ago! Holy Hannah! I'm gettin' old!
