It didn't seem too long ago when our senior, a freshman back then, told us he wanted to join his high school marching band. We did not go through high school here, so this was a totally new concept to us, and all we knew then was that marching band required a really big time commitment. And it was no joke - the countless hours of band camps and practices from summer through the first semester, and competition after competition on the weekends - the four years of marching band went by like a breeze!
At this year's Home Show, when we were out there in the field with our senior marcher being recognized, it was quite an emotional moment, especially with both our marchers with us. It was a little sad that this is the last year for our senior, but it's great to see and know how much his participation has influenced his brother!
Lastly, congrats to the Marching band and color guard for ending the season with flying colors! At the WBA Championships in Fresno last weekend, they finished 3rd place in both 5A and Grand Championships with their two highest scores ever! They also won the Best Music Award! Can't wait to see them again at the Los Altos Festival of Lights Parade and the Rose Parade!
