1982 Band News
Director: Thomas Allison
Drum Major: Nancy Keeton
...NEW UNIFORMS...The most significant change in the band's format was the purchase of new uniforms. Orange, black, and white, striped tops were bought along with white plumed Aussie hats to be worn with black trousers already on hand. Another outstanding change was the addition of freshmen band members from Junior High. This addition increased the band's size enough to allow a larger choice of style for marching formations.
...BAND BANQUET...Another venture attended by members of the band was the annual band banquet. The banquet was planned for Feb. 26, but it was postponed until March 4 because of snow. Mr. Randy Hughes, superintendent of Blevins schools and speaker at the banquet, had the students as well as the parents in the aisles with the story of "Rindercella." A suprise apperance by the great karnak (Mr. Allison) revealed many things about the band members they didn't know.
