I was humbled and honored when Bettina Dowell told me Saturday morning that her husband, Rob, had a flag flown in Baghdad in honor of the Marching Band! He sent an email with "good luck" message for the VBODA competition. I've put some pictures on the Band Booster blog -- http://www.hayfieldbandboosters.blogspot.com/ What a wonderful tribute from the Dowell family for our band!

Finally, a big thanks to all our senior marching-band students who were honored at the football game Friday night. We will miss each and every one of you!

All the best,
Lorraine Monaco
