Written by Kaylee Hall
The Yough band festival took place on October 5, 2024. The show consists of the songs The Moldau, Set Fire to the Rain, Howl from Ori and the Will of the Wisps, To Build a Home, Landslide, and Dog Days are Over. There were 7 marching bands in attendance, including Baldwin, Norwin, Kiski, Mars, Robert Morris University, Mount Pleasant, and Yough. The winning bands in each division were: 1A - Mars, 2A - Baldwin, 4A - Kiski. The band would like to thank everyone who contributed to our show, including Mrs. Chmay, all of the band staff, and all of our hard-working soloists. Also, everyone who contributed to the festival, including Mr. Sutherland, Mr. DeMaro, Mr. Wilkins, the custodians, and band booster parents. We would especially like to thank our drum major, Abbey Zuraw, for working with all of us to pull the show together. This was an amazing band season with so many accomplishments!
