Dear Mr. Erdogan, Newnan High School Band and Band Boosters,
I just wanted to take the opportunity to thank you for your warm southern hospitality this past weekend. From the moment we drove onto the Newnan High School Campus, we were treated warmly and with a sense of care and concern for our well-being.
My students and parents have remarked to me (we had a LONG bus ride home to talk!) about the organization and efficiency with which your competition operated, and the willingness of your people to assist with whatever your visitors needed. Unfortunately, that hospitality is not often the norm at Kentucky contests.
Further, I wanted to commend you on an outstanding performance on Saturday evening. Having run a competition before, I know what a long and tiring day you put in before the show, and I felt that even though you MUST be tired, you did an outstanding show.
We all fell in love with your town, your school, and you – We are considering making this competition an annual tradition to end our marching season.
Best of luck to you all.
Sincerely,
Dan Carpenter
Director of Bands
Somerset, Kentucky
This is such a wonderful compliment for all the hard work and effort to everyone who worked to make Old South such a success. Everyone should feel proud to be a part of the NHS Marching Cats.
