16 | September 21, 2017 | The frankfort station school frankfortstation.com Lincoln-Way Marching Band wins Grand Champion award Submitted by Lincoln-Way Community High School District 210 On Saturday, Sept. 9, the Lincoln-Way Marching Band took home top honors at the Amos Alonzo Stagg High School Marching Jamboree in Palos Hills. After placing first in Class AAA competition, the powerhouse marching band was selected as Grand Champion for its overall top scores out of the 14 participating bands. LWMB also received awards for general effect, music, color guard and percussion. “The crowd really responded to our performance,” said LWMB Director Chris Mroczek. “We were extremely pleased VENDORS WANTED Vendors are needed to offer seniors and baby boomers everything they need to know about health and wellness, fitness, financial planning, shopping and entertainment, assisted living, real estate, travel and more for the 3rd annual Active Aging—An Expo for Ages 50+. DATE: Saturday, October 21 TIME: 9 a.m. – 1 p.m. PLACE: Tinley Park Convention Center Space is limited — DEADLINE: Oct. 4 For More Information Call: 708.326.9170 ext. 16 Email: h.warthen@22ndcenturymedia.com Members of the Lincoln-Way Marching Band perform Sept. 9 at the Amos Alonzo Stagg High School Marching Jamboree in Palos Hills. Photo submitted with our kids’ performance. They’ve worked hard, and it paid off tonight.” At the competition, bands were classified in three class sizes, A, AA, and AAA, based on the number of playing musicians. A panel of judges uses Bands of America scoring sheets to assess each band’s performance. First, second, and third place awards are given to each class, and the title of Grand Champion is bestowed on the highest scoring band. Individual awards are given for outstanding percussion, color guard, general effect, and music. The newly formed Lincoln-Way Marching Band boasts 270 members from all three Lincoln-Way high schools. While Lincoln- Way has a long-standing tradition of strong marching bands at all district schools, this is only the second year the schools have joined forces to present one very large, all-district marching band. The group hopes that Saturday’s accomplishments will mark the beginning of a new reign in District 210. Area residents will have an opportunity to see the LWMB perform locally, on Saturday, Oct. 7, at Lincoln- Way East High School, when the band hosts the 22nd Annual Lincoln-Way Marching Band Invitational. Gates will open at 3:45 PM, and the competition is set to step off at 4:30 P.M. Spectators will be treated to a different marching band every 15 minutes. Competitors in the event include local bands from Eisenhower, Shepard, Lemont, Brother Rice, Lockport and Andrew High Schools. Lincoln-Way will perform at the conclusion of the event as an exhibition band. Proceeds from the event will benefit the Lincoln- Way marching band program and are used to purchase instruments, uniforms, props, sound equipment, transportation as well as instructional guidance. Marching band members from every school log many long hours preparing their annual show, usually beginning in the spring. Field shows are the culmination of years of practice and months of rigorous team training. The Lincoln-Way Marching Band will compete at the Illinois State University Invitational on October 14, and at the Bands of America Super Regional, in Indianapolis, on Oct. 21. Please come out to support these kids and their dedication to their craft. The frankfort station’s Standout Student Sponsored by Marquette Bank Grace Casey, Lincoln-Way East High School senior Grace Casey was chosen as this week’s Standout Student for her academic excellence What is one essential you must have when studying and why? Water and complete silence; otherwise I can’t think. What do you like to do when not in school or studying? I love to run. It’s even better when I get to run to my friend’s house to hang out with them. What is your dream job and why? A CEO/president of a corporation or a dermatologist. What is one thing people don’t know about you? That my mom didn’t make it to the hospital during labor. So I was born in the car ... oops. Whom do you look up to and why? My mom. She’s amazing. I don’t know how she does it all, but I really hope one day I can manage to do the same. Who is your favorite teacher and why? Mrs. Lamore has impacted me the most while being here. She cares about everyone and it’s very obvious. You just can’t have a bad day after talking to her. Photo submitted What is your favorite class and why? I enjoy English because it comes easily to me and it’s important in life, but then again I enjoy chemistry as well because it challenges me. What is one thing that stands out about your school? Sports and academics definitely. If you could change one thing about school, what would it be? I would love if they let us eat outside for lunch in the spring and fall. What is your favorite thing to eat in the cafeteria? Mac and cheese bites! They don’t come around often, but when they do ... I’m all over them. What is your best memory from school? The people. All the new friends and new faces I come across everyday have made this year one to remember. Standout Student is weekly feature in The Station. Nominations come from Frankfort schools.
