Glenn Miller Sweepstakes Award

The Lincoln Southeast Marching Band won the Glenn Miller Sweepstakes Award at the Clarinda, Iowa competition this past Saturday, Oct. 4.  (Glenn Miller is a Clarinda native.)  The band came in second in the parade, only losing by one point (out of 600 points).  They came in first in the field show, which came as no surprise, since they played and marched so well.  Their performance was especially impressive considering that this was the first competition of the season.  I videotaped the show, so I will put a link to some clips in my next blog.

Here is a photo of Dave riding the golf cart which was provided by the Bellevue East parents.



And here is a photo of the band in the pre-performance area.  I love the farm house in the background.




Dave must have liked the band's performance, since he did not re-write any drill today.  Instead, he finished building the doors to Angie's cabinet.  We should be able to stain it later this week.

The band kids won't know what to do if they don't have new drill to learn tomorrow.

Oh, well . . . They'll just have to polish what they already know.
