Had a few friends who worked at a station in Blacksburg back when such things were training grounds for bigger markets. There was also a pretty good Lebanese restaurant there at the time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smr-nj Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 My dog Lucy was euthanized a couple days after I came home from the hospital (mid-May), … it’s been a sad few weeks…. But today, in the mail, I received a gift from a friend.. a framed photo of me & Lucy on a “road trip” that was just a week before. She had such a good day… so glad she got that adventure day (complete with a burger)- neither of us knew she’d be gone in a week. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandyMarsh Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 Took a walk in the park today and there were a couple graduation parties going on in the pavilions. Seeing that always brings a smile to my face, not only for the kids involved and thinking about how much I enjoyed my party and going to friend's parties but the main reason is to me it just reminds me that summer has arrived! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

casimir Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 It’s high school band marching season in Ohio starting tonight (and they let the football team play at some of their performances, too). My oldest is a starting clarinetist. Can’t wait to see them entering the football field tonight. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love concert season. Lots of great new music out there. She is a sophomore, so we've run the annual gamut once already. It's OK, that's her bag, she enjoys it, the program is a very good one, I'm all in. I never paid attention to bands before, but it obviously changes when you have a rooting interest, so to speak. They had around 120-130 kids last year, and it looks to be the same this year. The stands didn't necessarily empty at halftime last night, and that seems pretty typical from our experience. #bandparent 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMRivdogs Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 It's great to see band programs getting recognition as opposed to being an after thought in many school systems. It's a skill that can continue until much later in life. One of the things I miss about not living in Michigan is the the lack of community bands here. The closest one is about 40 minutes away. Part of the reason is population density I think, but I think the culture in SE Michigan is a bit different. Lots of grads from U of M and Mich State are still playing into their mid to late 70s (or later). It's a bit more transient here. When we were back in Michigan recently my grandson indicated he was interested in playing in the school's band (he's in fifth grade). He wants to play sax. I told him if he makes the first cut I'll give him one of mine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My daughter uses my mom's clarinet from her high school marching band days. Mom would've been at every performance if she could. In a way, she's there at every practice and performance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do quite a bit of touring, I know. They're recordings are fantastic. We have several bases near us. The Air Force has a combined military band that usually performs in Williamsburg on special occasions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigeraholic1 Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 My daughter just graduated high school and was in marching band for 6 years(Her school allows middle school kids to participate). They won state the last three years. From band camp to state these kids put in three times the hours of any sport for their season. I never did marching band but I have a ton of respect for the program now after seeing these kids dedication. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
