Lancer Marching Band - Best Season Ever!

For quite some time our Lancer Marching Band has been very active in the community at various events, at football games, and among the competition circuit across Pennsylvania and many states.  Although a small Group I band that competes in the Tournament of Bands (TOB) across a seven-state area, the Lancer Band had an amazing season placing 7th among all Group 1 band with a final season score of 91.0.  This is the highest placement and highest score of any Lancer Band in school history.  The band's show, West Side Story, was set to the back drop of a mock city skyline rolled out onto the field at every performance and built by Mr. Gary Follmer.  What's important to note is that West Side Story's musical book is a complicated one, with various woodwind and brass lines that stump even the bet musicians sometimes.  The students in our band played extremely well, ranking within the top three among all 300+ marching bands for best woodwinds and GE music.  What this means is that our kids can play and play well while marching at off tempos and complicated field designs.  We couldn't be more proud and pleased with the students in our Lancer Marching Band!  Congrats to each of them and Mr. Barrett on such an amazing year and for putting Loyalsock once again on the state-wide map one more time!
