The CHS Pep Band completed another year of ‘service’ to the CHS athletic teams.The Pep band began in late August and performed at every home football game last fall. They continued their support for the CHS community by attending almost every basketball game, beginning last November and ending in March.
This year the regular basketball season for the girls and boys teams was extended. Both teams qualified for their state tournaments. The Pep Band traveled to Portland on March 5th for a mid-day game at University of Portland to support the girls. Though the girls did not win that game, they did win the next two games and placed 4th in state!
The next week the Pep Band traveled to all three games at The Pit at U of O to support the boys team, which placed 2nd in the state. The school also won the Sportsmanship Award this year and the band was a factor. The band received many positive comments from the OSAA, the Eugene Active 20-30 Club and U of O officials for their excellent music and decorum. The band received comments like: “I thought they were a college band,” “they were fun to watch,” they play great music,” ‘they were very well behaved, very easy to manage…” Congrats to the CHS pep band! And a big congrats to the Pep Band student directors this year, Brian McFadden and Andrea Kozak. Wow! What a leadership team!
