Adair Band in 1968 made up for marching technique with Music

About: Band Commitment to Excellence goes back to 70s

To ColumbiaMagazine.com

Just wanted to add a bit of trivia. I was a member of the first Adair County Band to ever march a field show (we didn't have a football program in 1968) and the only marching competition that year was held at Freedom Hall. We received an "Honorable Mention.Although our marching technique was lacking, we made up for it with our music - Music from The New World Symphony. If I'm not mistaken, my sister Carol was member of the first Adair County Band to win at the state level - not sure what year that was.
