Whereas, in the preliminary competition, Wando earned a superior rating, claiming first place in the Marching Band Lower State Championship. The top twelve scoring bands advanced to the finals competition; and
Whereas, the Wando High School marching band delivered an outstanding performance during the finals, securing the top position with a score of 93.8 and earning all caption awards for High Music Performance, High Visual Performance, and High Overall Effect; and
Whereas, Wando Director of Bands Bobby Lambert proudly watched as his musicians played their way to the top and earned the right to display hardware only champions get to take home. Director Lambert is supported in his labors by Associate Director Lanie Radecke and Dr. Andrew Blair, the band's new associate director, now in his first year; and
Whereas, the South Carolina House appreciates the pride and recognition the Wando High School marching band has brought to its school and community, and the members look forward to hearing of further accomplishments by the band and its talented musicians. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
