On Monday, November 4, YMS and YHS participated in an indoor marching show for the community of Yankton. This year's theme was 100 years of the Meridian Bridge. Mrs. Belgum told me what she thought about the 7th and 8th graders' performance. "They had an excellent performance. There was some struggle at first, but they made a recovery. They have been working on this piece since August and have been memorizing it since October. "
Even though they struggled with their pieces, the YMS Marching band did a fantastic job. The YHS band did skits after their performance. Next year, today's sixth graders will become seventh graders and be able to perform with the theme of video games, as seen in their trailer for their 2025 performance.
The flag guard and the marching band recreated the Missouri River and the Meridian Bridge, with the flag guard recreating the river and the bridge. In contrast, the marching band recreated the land around the river. They had a fantastic performance, and hopefully, next year's performance will be as good as this one. Maybe next year you will go to the indoor show.
