October 22, 2002 return to main index
On
Tuesday, October 22nd - the Band Scholars of our Fighting Tiger
Grrr...Pep Band [aka FTGPB] had the rare opportunity to perform
for the Valvoline World Conference. What a beautiful day it was
- what a grand and glorious venue for us to showcase the
versatility and excellence of our Tiger Bands specifically and
Georgetown College collectively. It was truly a day when we
lived up to our historic epitaph of "Music for all
Occasions"
