This past week, NPH excitedly welcomed the chance to hold this year's local marching band competition! It became clear that our own marching band intended to impress, as they practiced almost every afternoon for hours at a time. I can pretty much recite the tune note by note at this point haha.
Once Wednesday arrived, so too did the parade of bands. With ours leading, each band marched confidently onto our basketball court. After all gathering around, each band was then allotted the limelight for their selected song. Everything from local pop music to the classics were thrown in there. To top it off, each band had it's own coordinated wardrobe. Some bands were Michael Jackson-inspired with a white glove accessory, while others were Justin Timberlake-inspired with a fedora hat accessory. Our band kept it traditional with celeste and white uniforms. I even spotted two of my English students, Marizon and Paola, among our band (below). While it was not a judged competition, you could tell our kids walked away feeling as if they had taken first place :)
