Not This Year

Sadly our band didn't make it to state this year. I have to say it was a hard loss since we had won Grand Champions the week before. However, the picture shows what a few of the boys in the band did before the competition to show spirit (Clint had better sense). Maybe the loss of hair reduced their strength and that's why they lost. hmmm.

Grand Champions

Our marching band took 1st place in their division and Grand Champions overall. It was a good day. Next week we go to upper state to see if we qualify for state. We haven't been to state since Harrison was a freshman, so we are hoping this is the year. It would be good for the Chelak clan since all four are marching.

High School Musical

I have been tapped to direct our local high school's musical this year. They haven't done a musical in about 9 or 10 years. In fact, the last few year's plays have been written and directed by the school's biology teacher. He's gone from the high school now because of some internet indescretions, and the drama teacher doesn't like doing school plays, so I spoke up and got the job. I suggested that we do Once Upon a Mattress and it looks like its a go. I'm excited.
