And most importantly HAVE FUN!!!To any upperclassmen reading this you might have learned something. But let's be honest we are all gonna get a sunburn at least once this season. And forget water once this season. We aren't perfect human beings. We can set the best example for the underclassmen. Stay positive even in negative situations. Believe me if you look like you're having fun they will start to have fun, and if they have fun you will have fun. See the circle of fifths. Wait I mean the circle of fun. But you have to start that circle. And even when the freshmen get annoying stay positive. We got this. I wish everyone an amazing marching band season!
