Well, it's mid-October, so that means it's Homecoming! The school is all decked out to reflect the Windy City theme, and the Concert Band has created their annual banner, which in my opinion looks great. We are defending champs in the advisory banner contest, so I hope we can hold on to our crown.On Tuesday night, we had a small group of Warrior Marching Band members form a pep band for our boys varsity soccer team. We cheered them on to a 4-1 victory over our crosstown rivals, the Highland Park Giants. Now we are frantically preparing our halftime show for Friday night. Hopefully it won't be raining non-stop like it did last week. Thank heavens for ponchos! Tomorrow we also have our traditional 8th period march through the halls and the pep rally. I can't wait!
UPDATE: The banner took second place! And, the band did a great job at halftime, in spite of being rained out of several early bird practices and having to perform on the rice paddy that was Adams Field. The team was successful, too, defeating Niles North 26-13 to improve to 5-2 on the season. One more win puts us in the playoffs!
