BAND MARCHES INTO NEW TERRITORY

It has been several years since Winston High School had a Marching Band, well thanks to a persistent band director, and several motivated students, The Redbirds are once again on the move.  Over the past several weeks the Winston High School Marching Redbirds have been working towards the resurrection of their marching band.

There is of course still a lot to do.  Uniforms have to be cleaned and altered to fit our students, a banner has to be obtained, and of course marching has to be cleaned up.  However, so much work has already gone into it.  Ms. O'Dell has already procured 2 sousaphones for our low brass section, We have new drumline instruments, and kids have been dedicating time outside of the school day to getting ready.

At this time you will have the opportunity to see our Marching Redbirds, or at least parts of them, twice this year.  Our newly formed Drumline will be marching this Friday (9-22-17) in the Maysville Homecoming Parade which starts at 2:15.  Then you can catch the whole band at the MWSU Homecoming Parade in St. Joseph on October 28th.  Come out and support our students and show everyone why we believe: It is a Great Day to be a Redbird!
