Trying to get this.

I am having fun being able to blog from my phone. Now I just have to get them to go in the right order. Obviously they were waiting and then got the award. The kids were pretty excited that they were that close to being the best band in their class. They plan on working double hard to make first place next year. We should have a great band in the years to come. This band has only 1 senior and 3 juniors in it. It will continue to get better and better.

Awaiting the awards.

Patiently????

3rd place 2A band

There were eight bands in our class. We were tied in points for second and one point behind first.

Earning Yellow Coup

Zak was tapped into the Tribe Mic-O-Say on June 12, 2008. He has been busy with dances and parades ever since. Gary the district dance director has been a great help. After three practices and three public dances, Zak has now earned the yellow coup. The red coup is next after 9 practices and 9 dances. That will be alot more difficult because most of the practices are on Sunday.
