To the editor:

WANTED: All former band members to form an alumni marching band for the upcoming all-school reunion parade.REWARD: The joy of marching once again down Luverne’s Main Street to the roar of an appreciative crowd.EXCUSES WHY I CAN’T:1. I don’t have an instrument.2. I forgot how to play.3. I can’t read music.4. I don’t have time to practice.None of these excuses kept you from being in band when you were in high school, and they shouldn’t now!Come back and renew old friendships and see how the directors Tom Haugen and Dale Nelson have kept their youthful appearances despite being a combined 217 years of age.Tom believes that he will have the largest number of former students in attendance because of their dedication to the band program.Dale knows that he will have the larger number of former students because he will be offering a greater incentive — free donuts.We look forward to seeing you this summer. Tom Haugen, Dale Nelson, Alumni Band Directors
