Congratulations on a wonderful season TMB!

Congratulations to all the students of the Tiger Marching Band on a very successful season! I am very proud of the TMB for their performances, positive attitude, and the family like atmosphere they maintained for the past 5 months. Even though it was June at time, it seems like it was just yesterday that we were distributing music and warm-ups for the first time. I am most proud of the TMB because of their commitment to continually improve themselves regardless of the obstacles they faced from bad weather, poor field conditions, or any number of other challenges. No matter how many times I work with a marching band, it's always amazing to me to look back and see how we took 54 individuals with all different levels of experience, to create incredibly high quality visual and musical productions.

Special thanks to all the volunteers and staff that helped the TMB throughout the season. The kids couldn't have achieved their success without your support!

I'm excited to start the planning stages for TMB 2010. Feel free to share your thoughts or ideas as we build upon our success from this year and plan for next year.

Thanks again!

Mr. Hall

Congrats to all the TMB members on an excellent performance at ISU yesterday. It was by far the best performance of the season! The final competitive results are still not known at this time, but the Pantagraph of Bloomington, IL published a news story on the contest and they used a photo of our very own Deven Carter for the article. Check it out!
