Will someone give me their opinion on this essay? The Raider Brigade has always been a home for me. Even before High School, I always had a home in the large family that is the Raider Brigade. Today, with half of high school behind me, I want to give that same feeling to anyone who enters the bandroom. That is why I am trying out for Section Leader.
Ever since I was a child, I loved going to the football games to see the halftime show. I remember wondering how everyone knew when and how to move while playing at the same time. Now, I realize the amount of hard work and dedication that goes into every second of the show.
When I began my first marching season, I Struggled with the footwork and maneuvering, yet I was determined to get it right, to make every performance look like the ones I loved watching as a kid. Consequently, I went to work, spending hours trying to find any trick or system to make my marching as close to perfection as possible. It is because of this, I can quickly and effectively help my fellow band members with many common problems and mistakes.
Overall, I want to be a section leader, not only to help the current band members, but for the children in the stands. So, that one day, when they become band members, their hearts are filled with as much love for the band as I have now.
