Yeah, hows that going, by the way?

Don't know personally, but everyone I've talked to says she's doing fine. She's happy with how it's going. She and Brian get along. So as far as I know, no problems! (Except that apparently last year someone must have cracked a mace, because the first time Leah dropped it, it snapped in half!

)

Delaine and I were DMs for four years (89-92).
As far as the years I was in band...

Tom was DM for two years, I think (01-02), Elaina for one (02). Kent and Bozz were DM for two years, together (03-04). Heather was DM for one year (05). Brian is on his second year of being DM (05-06) as a fifth-year senior. Leah is now Brian's co-DM, and as she is only a junior, she will probably try again next year.

That gave me a headache.

WHAT!? No tenure?

I faint.

I would be one and done if that was the case back in the day!

I'm sure all my private conducting classes would have kept me in the running

Or we would have lost our jobs to that one trumpet guy from the drum corps...
