Guest column: Havre band trip was a great experience

(Havre High School band member Amelia Beard wrote about the band’s recent trip to Washington, D.C.)

The D.C. trip was amazing and the experience to march in the D.C. parade was absolutely outstanding.

This is a memory I will never forget. This trip definitely brought the band together, and we all became closer with each other.

The trip was well organized. All of the monuments we were able to see were phenomenal. The two days of traveling back home wasn’t the bad for me.

We made new friends in D.C. who were also marching in the parade. Several people cheered on our marching band as we marched by. One kid even had our high school flag.

Coming back from D.C. and getting an escort was great. People honked and told us “good job.”

The whole trip itself was an amazing experience that I believe nobody from the band will ever forget.

Mr. Johnke will not only be missed by the band but also by the community.
