Tivy Places 25 Musicians in Region Band
Auditioning virtually this year due to COVID-19 restrictions, 24 Tivy High School band members earned spots in the Region 29 5A Band, while one musician earned a spot in the 6A Band.
“Our amazing Tivy band students worked very hard through the challenges, like COVID-19, full time classes, and marching band, and they put in the extra hours to learn the music,” said head band director Roxanne Vickers.
“Students recorded their audition segment, and it was then submitted for judging. This was a first for these students as these auditions are usually in person.”
