Congratulations to Sycamore’s Drum Line for another great competition season.   Their theme this year was the “Golden Spud”, a scene from Indiana Jones. The battery members were dressed as mummies and an artistic plot in the performance mad the judges go wild.

Mr. Gordon, the drum line teacher, composed and taught them their music.  The students believe they are so successful because they put a lot of work and practice hours in.  They practice from 2:45 to 4:45 on Tuesdays and Thursdays.  They often put in Saturday practice time as well.

The drum line had two competitions in March.  On March 20^th, they traveled Mission Hills High School in San Marcos.  They competed against seven other junior high schools and finished in 1^st place with 84.6 points.  On March 27^th they traveled to Riverside and again finished with a 1^st place win, scoring 85.7 points.

On April 24^th, Sycamore’s Drum Line again traveled to Mission Hills High School for the American Drum Line Association’s Championship competition.  They competed against eleven other junior high schools and finished in second place with 87.6 points. Go Sycamore Drum Line!!
