So This Is What A Champion Marching Band Looks Like??

Absolutely!!!!!! Forest Park won 1st place at the ISSMA State Marching Band Contest Class D in the brand new Lucas Oil Stadium.

It was a nerve racking day of watching great band after great band play their hearts out. When the awards were announced, we listened as 10th place...9th place.....8th place.....still not FP. 7th....6th....5th....4th.....well, we were in 3rd place last year, so that would be good again. 3rd......Oh my goodness ... we're in the top 2. Then came the announcement of the runner-up, and FP was not announced. My sisters, mom, and I jumped out of our seats. Forest Park won the championship!!!!!!!! It has been a long season filled with obstacles, but Forest Park overcame all adversity and won!!!!!!!

Lee videotaped the performance and awards. As we did last year, we will provide the family with a nice memory of November 1, 2008.

Congratulations Rangers and Congratulations Sabrina!!!!! You all did a great job!!!!!!!
