Marching Bands article (opens in a new window)
Great article about Marching Bands in Michigan (and their lack of funding by the state).
There were many, many “things” in high school that influenced me into the person I am today. Marching Band (and the teachers, parents, etc., that supported this extra-curricular activity) are quite near the top of those influential “things” (people such as teachers, friends, as well as events, like halftime shows, band concerts, classes, etc.)
