The campus of Central Methodist University and the streets of Fayette were once again filled with music and supportive cheers as the 60th Annual Band Day was held on Saturday, October 11. More than 30 schools were in attendance across the competitions in the parade, field, and indoor disciplines.
Many of the schools were led by directors who have attended or are attending Central. Alumni and graduate student directors included Andrew Adams (Glasgow), Daniel Long (Norborne), Kelly Briggs (North Harrison), Nicholas Vick (El Dorado Springs), Kevin Fearn (MME; Harrisburg), Micheal Williams (Salisbury), Ryan Lewis (Hallsville), Kelly Neudecker (MME; Fulton), Mike Fuller (MME; Hannibal), Sara Summers (Marshall), and Heather Armstrong (Moberly).
