A very honorable moment for these Clarksville Indians! Our band/choir teacher, Mr.
Sundet had asked fellow band members on who wanted to apply towards this amazing event. This event is known as honor band! Where dedicated band members put in the time and effort towards this extra activity. They learn these musical masterpieces and then anticipate until the day of the concert. As expected, many people rose their hands for this, yet when Mr. Sundet turned in their name and what they’ve done for band in the past, only three lucky students got in. Those students that got chosen where: junior, Sarah Sundet; sophomore, Emily Watterson; and freshman Hope Megadanz. These band members have been out for band since they’ve had the chance to be out! Sarah Sundet is Mr. Sundet’s daughter, so she has all the secret insight on the tricks and tips. One big event in Sarah’s life is that she made it to All State band two years in a row, which in case you didn’t know, is a huge event for all the amazing band contestants. To get in you have to know your songs forwards, backwards, sideways, and with your eyes closed, so no pressure. Yet, with this fun experience for not only Sarah, the future is looking bright for freshman Hope. She has a lot she can do this year in high school and hopefully experience it to the fullest! Sophomore, Emily Watterson, has participated in solo ensemble since middle school and continues to do so to this day. She goes to band with the spirits of learning a certain part or just to play her part for that day. She even took part of Conference Band last year in Don Bosco! Now, if you put your head to the game, fellow band members, then maybe you could get selected for honor band yourself! Happy playing!
