If you were at the Ada/Durant football game last Friday or even if you werent please read this post. Apparently there is some misinformation going around town about the Ada High marching band. As a band booster and parent of a band member, I would like to spread some correct information. 1) The band has not performed in uniforms because there werent enough for our growing number of members. 2) The band is comprised of nearly 75% freshmen and sophomores. That translates to only 25% with more than one season of marching experience. 3) The Durant band was very entertaining! 4) What you saw/heard our kids perform was the first movement of a three movement show. Yes, it was a little slow but it builds into a great piece. 5) These kids began practicing all day for the two hot weeks before school started and now practice 8-11 hours per week. And will start competitions in October. 6) Lets celebrate the fact that so many of our kids are taking an interest in music. A growing band is a nice problem to have!
