You should pick me for marching band leadership because I am committed to this program and have the competence to lead a team to success. My biggest strengths are my ambition and my ability to take initiative. As a leader, I am compassionate and take time to build strong relationships with those around me.

It began during my 8th grade year, I started to play in the marching band for the football games and parades. Percussion was my cup of tea because I know that I could nail it by reading and memorizing the music more often. It took me days to memorize my music for the half-time performances, especially for the parades. Meanwhile at the football field for the first time ever, I begin to think that maybe it did not turn out to be bad after all. For the rest of the football season during half-time, I

These show shirts serve as a sort of badge devoted to all of the hard work and dedication of the people who contributed to make the best of what we work at least 4-5 months to create.

They would either sleep in the bus or go out and look for a home that was willing to be shared for the night. Bands would sometimes be fed and sheltered by these families.

‘Sing, Sing, Sing (With a Swing)’, was originally composed by Louis Prima, and was then subsequently made popular by Benny Goodman and his jazz orchestra in 1937.

In high school, the marching band attended every football game, so it made
