The Kingwood Park HS Band

returned from summer break

energized and ready to learn

on an early August morning.

Band camp is now at an end,

and the band has already

learned the first two move-

ments of their competitive

field show.

With heat indexes reaching as

high as 110 degrees this sum-

mer, this group has done a

fantastic job of personal ac-

countability to get the job

done as scheduled.

The first football halftime

performance we will be on

Friday, September 15th. It is

an away game against New

Caney High School. Make

sure you come cheer us on and

wear your favorite KPark

Band merchandise!

Matthew Hercl, tuba, and

Dylan Wootton, trumpet,

represented our school with

pride when they performed

and toured the U.S. over the

entire summer with the

Crossmen Drum & Bugle

Corps.

When asked about his expe-

rience over the summer,

Matthew Hercl responded,

“It was the hardest thing

I’ve ever done, but it was

the most fun thing I’ve ever

done. And we really appre-

ciated our friends from

KPark coming and seeing us

perform back in July. Hope-

fully they make similar

choices and decide to march

during the summer.” Dylan

Wootton added on, “It was

definitely a hard summer

but it was the best decision

I’ve ever made. It was simp-

ly amazing.”

Afterwards, the audience and the entire band

proceeded to the auditorium for a different kind

of performance. With the band set up on stage,

they played through the entire show, which

consists of three separate movements.

It was truly a great way to start off this new

season. This group of students have been work-

ing so hard and it is so rewarding to get to see

an almost finished product so soon in the year.

Here’s to many more great performances!

On August 24th, the KPark Band debuted their

2017 competitive field show titled “A Mother’s

Gift” at their annual Panther Premiere. A large

number of parents, relatives, and friends all

came out to watch and support this fantastic

group of performers.

Following a quick and informative demonstra-

tion from the color guard, the band set up and

showcased the first two parts of the show

they’ve been working on over the entire sum-

mer.

“Failure is

often a

better

teacher

than

success.”

from 4:00pm-5:45pm. The band truly

excelled and they are excited to learn

more!

KMS Band was hard at work

from August 7th-11th learning

their pep rally songs. They are

really raising the bar and setting

the standard for the new year. In

just a week, they learned 6 out

of their 10 songs.

They debuted their music on

August 24th at Cougar Camp
