Thank You The Band Boosters and Orchestra parents who gave assistance to us through their participation this year. I would especially like to thank our Executive Board for their many hours of work in helping our kids. The Banquet Committee who did such a wonderful job of planning and producing tonight’s event. The combined efforts of Mr. and Mrs. Frick as well as Mr. and Mrs. Kevin Miller who have gone above and beyond in the creation of the Marching Band DVDs, tonight’s senior video and the soon to come Concert Band and Orchestra DVD. Our school Administration, the Superintendent, Mr. Cobert and the Principal, Mr. Whittington, and the School Board who have provided great support and encouragement in allowing our program to grow and improve. Our band and orchestra students for being such great kids to work with – they make it fun to be a teacher! Our seniors who have provided such excellent leadership and musicianship to our programs this year. The EPCHS Faculty who have been so supportive of our students and their musical activities, especially Paul Standord and his team for all of their technical contributions, Pat Peterson who has helped us by copying all of our music, handouts and programs we have needed throughout the year, our custodial staff who have been so much help in providing logistical assistance, and Steve Cordell for his assistance as auditorium manager.

Thank you all for coming tonight and for all of your support throughout the year of the instrumental music program.

Last Will and Testament My wishes are for a successful marching season and concert season. I hope the saxophones continue to be the best slackers they can be. I give my thanks to everyone in the band because you helped make my time with band worth it. – Bryce Decker To the drumline my set of quads that have been my babies for two years and my tympanis. To the orchestra, I leave the twin legacy of making sure that Mr. S is always annoyed and always left smiling. To everyone I leave the memories of the past four years and the best to everyone in the future. – Maria Pummill I hereby bequeath to Austin Pummill and Clay Faber 1) a sangwidch, 2) a couch, and 3) the right to tell the grasshopper and octopus story. – Mike Joe I, Laura Campbell, being of sound mind and body do hereby bequeath the following: To Alisha, I leave the female presence of the trumpet section. To Ross, I leave Monday nights as date night. To Tracy, I leave my inevitable sarcasm, as if you need more. To Andrew, I leave my counting skills, so you come in on time. To the trumpet section, I leave my hope for a great upcoming year. And to the band, I leave my best wishes for a fun and successful next year. I, Sharon Messmore, being of sleep deprived mind and chocolate loving body, do hereby bequeath the following: To the trumpet section, I give the leadership of the band – don’t forget you’re the best. To Andres Earle, I leave my chair. To all the new seniors, I leave the fun and craziness of senior year – make the most of it! To Patrick, I leave the ability to spread ridiculous untrue rumors with the What?_____WHAT?! method. To the Drum Majors, I leave service to your fellow band members – everything is for them. Mr. Schneblin its been an honor to work with you, keep it up! To Matt I leave a lot of pain. To the entire band, I leave pride of what you have accomplished, and will accomplish. Pride first, then step off! – Tyler(Squeaks) Neyens

I, (your name), Joshua Smith, being of sound mind and body do hereby bequeath the following” To the entire trumpet section, the 3 rules of trumpeting. To Cody Scott, the ability to actually be serious from time to time. To Cody Benway and Jacob Marriott, my frequent but random dances with the Raiderettes during cadences at football games. And to the entire band, my love and joy for music and for making it. Finally, to Mr. S, my flowing long, wavy, red hair. (Don’t actually add this!) I, Monica Rosenbaum being of crazed mind and body do hereby bequeath the following… My incredible knack of getting out of trouble to all of those who wreak havoc. I, Steven Tyler Bubba Hoskins, being of caffeine dependent mind and teddy bear like body, do hereby bequeath my mad tuba playing skills to the tuba section and to Andrew Earle I leave the ability to have awesome parties before band practices out by the car. To Danny Visocky, I leave the Asian good looks passed down to me from Dewey Kim, himself. To Sydney Maxfield I leave my laid back attitude and the ability to annoy Schneblin even when not trying. To Austin Pummill, I bestow (officially) the title of manliest man in band. To Andrew Earle, I pass down the title of sexiest Man Alive. To Kyle Griffith, you get my ability to not care about anything, so you can calm down for once. To all the band, I leave the great memories of all, the good times together. I leave my best wishes to your future years in the band and good luck in your future contests and shows. – Mike Peak

To the band from all the seniors: We love you guys, enjoyed every minute of our time with you. Keep up the awesome work. Cherish the time that you have now because it goes by quick. We hope to see a wicked show next year!
