            2000- Invited to perform for then Presidential Candidate, George Bush(our principal didn't let us do it because he thought it would have been too political)

            2001- Performed at the Grand Opening of the new Louisiana DOTD building

             

            Of course, numerous 1st place trophies at BOTB all across the Southern region(Louisiana, Texas, and Arkansas), and all of the District and State Sweepstakes trophies from Concert and Marching Band festival.
