The high school marching band season was concluded this week with the annual banquet and awards ceremony. What a great group of … everyone! Staff, volunteers, parents, and of course the students make for such a rewarding experience. It was really special that Tim was able to participate in the early part of his treatment. He missed a few things and wasn’t able to march on the field but he certainly participated where he could. Being his senior year, I hope he was able to demonstrate some leadership for the underclassmen. I think he did. What was also really special was that the band director made a special presentation for Tim acknowledging his effort (Overcoming All Obstacles-Award) while being in treatment. It was really unexpected and quite emotional to hear those words and hear the room applaud for Tim. We will always remember this year (well, duh!) but certainly this part of Tim’s senior experience will be an outstanding memory.
