LHS Band Goes to Disney World by Kelsey Devasure

     As tradition calls for, one of Lebanon High School's biggest classes takes a trip every four years, and 2012 was the year for Disney! Fundraising and anticipation of this trip had been going on for over a year. Of course, you can't take nearly 200 students on a plane to Florida, so before the fun began the crowd was met with 23 hours on a charter bus. Through climate, scenery, and time zone changes the students drove toward the trip of their band careers.

     Early the next day a week of magic met them. The students truly got to enjoy several aspects of a Florida vacation. 5 Disney parks, Cocoa Beach, Planet Hollywood, what else could a high school-er ask for to enjoy with their friends. Of course band kids make up more of a family than most clubs. Sweating and practicing together, winning together, traveling together, and now vacationing together.
     Of course, the trip wasn't all fun and games. The band also enjoyed a professional clinic to learn how to put music to movies.    The trip of a lifetime has to be accompanied by the opportunity of a lifetime. In four years time a new group of band students will again be taken on the trip of a lifetime thanks to our wonderful band program.
