° The ottlY ayto deseribe
how the ' SDHS All Girl
Trumpet Band felt at 7 a.m.
Saturday zeothing, Novem-
ber 22, was Very tired and
'really excited. We were
getting ready to leave town
and ge. to a city with the
population of Seaforth in just
a few blocks. We were going
to represent Seaforth at an
ordeal that most bands only
dream about The SIMS
band as going to be on
National TV at 1:00 that
afternoon in the Grey Ctip
Parade. How could we not
feel excited about this?
Aa I said, we crawled up
to the high school at li:45
a.m., most of us awakening
at 5:45-6;00.- The bus left
Seaferth at 7:15 and we were
on our way to Toronto. The
bus trip back was full of
excitement, fun chatter and
snoring but seemed to eo
rather quickly as Toronto
seems miles further on a
school bus than it does in 4
car with your family. Girls
who'had chi/5 and 4 lunch to
munch on seemed to be the'
poPular ones to sit with and
we sure didn't go' hungry.
Most girls ate at approxi.
mately 6:3Q and by 7:45 were
. already eating their lunch.

COMING TO LIFE
Once in the big city,
everyone seemed to come to
life again and watch as we
passed all sorts of peepte
owthe 401. Everyone seemed
to have some place to go by
some certain time. Not vs!'
Sure we had to be in Toronto
by 11:00 or so- to, "start
marching but here it was.
9:00 and we were so con-
cerned about watching the
airplanes take of from ,the
airport and all of tire traffic
areund us. We went through'
Chinatown
stores start to open and the
different kinds of people,
that you hardly ever see
around the streets of Sea -
forth. Finally, we started. to
seejloats and other bands
and arrived at Queens Park
at approximately 9:30. We
sure did make good time.
The one bus arrived ahead of
the other so waited for the
other one in front of a
college. Then we were dis-
• missed to get something to
eat and have a washroom
.break. This,gaveus a chance
-to see more .of Toronto and
see what the people. , of
Toronto are like. We got
some interesting ideas from
some.
The problem with eating at
10:30 after you have been up
for four and a -half hours is
that you're ready for lunch
and Mcdonalds is still serv-
ing breakfast. Sure that's
fine if you didn't have a big
breakfast and you didn't pig
out all the way to Toronto,
but if you're ready for lunch
and possibly supperr you
aren't ready to eat an egg
McMullin. We meVagain at
the buses to get ready to
march at 1:30 or ,so •evcn
though the parade started at
1:00. Did you notice the word
buses has been used quite a
bit? For this special parade,
we rented two buses instead
of the usual one bus. Even
though the one bus was just a
school bus, we didn't have to
squeeze three people into .a
oeat and still have people
sitting in the aisles -
ALL SET tO GO
Once wc were changed.
we were all set to go and no
place to go. We stood wailing
for the Parade to start for
about two hours. It was a
good thing Saturday was a
nice day. We.waited patient-
ly and every 15 minutes
would tine up ready to march
ofF. but ' disappointed. we
would start talking to .our
friends again But the mo-
ment 'same that we started
marching. We didn't get
very far the first time. maybe
a block or so. but at least we

„
'started parading the streets
of Toronto. People lined the

we were really encdhrAged as
people, all sorts of people,
would send encouragement
out way. People are impress;

Forseme reason, quite a few

impressed with the fact -that
we are an all girl band.
TV CAMERAS
I wasn't at all nervous
about the newspaper cam-

then I wouldn't be so seared.
d Then there was another set
of TV cameras.. Then the
judges. ,
The judges didn't really
bother me. I didn't feel that
there was much hope for a
trophy -although I really wish-
ed there was. We were there
to represent Seafortla,_ the
high school and our bad and

that's all that really matters.
Then on to the reviewing
stand and shortly we were
back loading into the buses
again. We were tired and
cold but it was over and we

parking lot itf which the

about a.,.block-avitay from the

some girls wante t et
home early. It was over. The
band was home again and
heard comments about being
seen on TV. Worrying about
how we looked and whether
we were smiling or not, we
think about the events of the
very busy day. We repre-
sented Seaforth and did a
good job. We were in the
1.9.BILGrey, Cup -Parade!.
