I spent my summers getting ready for football season and until recently, playing 2 on 2 beach volleyball. It wasn't until our daughters became involved in marching band that I came to realize that marching band is a sport...and a very tough one at that. Consider this...you have to play an instrument (and play it well because the crowd and judges are listening), while maneuvering through a complexly choreographed field routine. So with band camp about to start (it's kinda like Hell Week but longer), my hats off to all of you who make it look so easy. I mark my tribute with this sports poster of Tom from the WCHS Drumline.
