From the Three Forks Tradition:
Fear in 2007 By: Tami Stickler The great President FDR once said, "We have nothing to fear but fear itself". All the things that can give us the creepy crawlies and make us tremble with fright will be featured in this year's Pride of the Mountains show entitled "Fear". The band has been working on the show since early July in preparation for this fall's season which begins at Beechwood High in early September. They have just finished two weeks of camp where they have learned the music and practiced the drill. It has been a super two weeks and the Pride has had a lot of fun as well perfecting their show. The show focuses on things that frighten us an will feature exciting music as well as a head turning drill. Make plans to join us this fall as we excite and fright our audiences across Kentucky on our way to state finals at Papa John's Stadium in October. The band and boosters would like to thank the community for their support of the recent Bingo. The cakewalk will be coming up at the Homecoming Fair and we would love to entertain you that evening. Check out the band's website on the Lee County schools page under extra-curricular activities for an update on all the contests and locations this fall.

From the Three Forks Tradition: Lee County Band begins season By: Tami Stickler Marching band season is just around the corner and preparations are being completed for another exciting fall with the Pride of the Mountains. The kids have started the countless hours of hot days in the sun as practices are already underway and camp is coming up. Camp and summer practices are when the band learns their music and show. The show's theme this year is "FEAR" and showcases an intricate drill and exciting music that features all things scary! You will be frightened but much entertained this fall with this interesting in-up! The band is under the direction of Tony Barrett with help from field commander Summer Griffin as well as flag tech Teresa Brinegar and percussion tech Brandon Griffith. Also, visit our wonderful website designed by band booster Candy Bryant on the Lee County Schools website, it will give you all kinds of information about what your Pride of the Mountains Band is up to!
