A HOUSE RESOLUTION
TO HONOR THE NATION FORD HIGH SCHOOL MARCHING BAND AND BAND DIRECTOR MARTIN DICKEY ON WINNING THE 2011 SOUTH CAROLINA BAND DIRECTORS ASSOCIATION CLASS AAA STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE.
Whereas, soaring high on an already outstanding seasonal performance, the Nation Ford marching band proved its right to the 2011 South Carolina Band Directors Association Class AAA State Championship trophy, defeating a great roster of musical talent on October 29, 2011; and
Whereas, with energy and style, the band worked together to produce a beautifully synchronized show, one both esthetically and musically pleasing to the senses of their delighted audience; and
Whereas, Band Director Martin Dickey once again delivered the incredible training that enabled the Falcons to take home yet another championship trophy; and
Whereas, remembering that this new title win adds up to three state championships for Nation Ford, jubilant fans considered the probable necessity of building the band a new shelf to house their overflowing honors; and
Whereas, for the victorious Falcons, being selected to march in the eighty-fifth Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, held November 24, 2011, in New York City, added a generous measure of glitz to an already scintillating season; and
Whereas, the House of Representatives, grateful for the Nation Ford marching band's fine musicianship and representation of all the best in South Carolina's young people, is pleased to recognize such an exceptional group of young musicians. The members anticipate with interest hearing of similarly outstanding accomplishments to come. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, honor the Nation Ford High School marching band and Band Director Martin Dickey on winning the 2011 South Carolina Band Directors Association Class AAA State Championship title.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Principal Beverley Bowman and Band Director Martin Dickey of Nation Ford High School.
