A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO SALUTE THE D.W. DANIEL HIGH SCHOOL MARCHING BAND AND BAND DIRECTOR FOR A SENSATIONAL SEASON AND TO CONGRATULATE THESE OUTSTANDING MUSICIANS ON WINNING THE 2019 SOUTH CAROLINA BAND DIRECTORS ASSOCIATION CLASS AAA STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE.

Whereas, having prepared themselves for success, on October 26, 2019, at Chapin High, the members of the D.W. Daniel High School marching band outplayed all comers to capture the 2019 South Carolina Band Directors Association (SCBDA) Class AAA state crown; and

Whereas, after many hours of dedicated, disciplined rehearsal, the Lions marched off the field of competition with top honors and a trophy unlike any hardware Daniel High had ever won before. It was, jubilant Lion fans proclaimed, an especially proud moment for Daniel because it was the first state title in school history for the school's band program; and

Whereas, this 2019 championship win tasted even sweeter since Daniel defeated Pickens High to achieve it, Pickens being the team that put the Lions in second place in the battle for the 2018 state crown; and

Whereas, using his own considerable musical skills and training, Band Director Chaz Paxton forged a winning band program and taught these young musicians important lessons that will serve them well both on and off the marching field. Director Paxton was ably assisted by an excellent staff, including Jason Allen, percussion instructor; Brad Kelley, visual instructor; Shayne Erickson, visual instructor; Jennifer Crowe, color guard instructor; and Dani Knox, color guard instructor; and

Whereas, the House, proud of the group's commitment and success, takes great pleasure in honoring the D.W. Daniel High School marching band for capturing the 2019 SCBDA 3A state title. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, salute the D.W. Daniel High School marching band and band director for a sensational season and congratulate these outstanding musicians on winning the 2019 South Carolina Band Directors Association Class AAA State Championship title.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Principal Shannon Sharkey and Band Director Chaz Paxton of D.W. Daniel High School.
