TO HONORTHE NATION FORD HIGH SCHOOLMARCHING BAND AND BAND DIRECTOR MARTIN DICKEY ON WINNING THE 2011 SOUTH CAROLINA BAND DIRECTORS ASSOCIATION CLASS AAA STATECHAMPIONSHIP TITLE.

Whereas, soaring high on an already outstanding seasonal performance, theNation Ford marching band proved its right to the 2011 South Carolina Band Directors Association Class AAA State Championship trophy, defeating a great roster of musical talent on October 29, 2011; and

Whereas, with energy and style, the band worked together to produce a beautifully synchronized show, one both esthetically and musically pleasing to the senses of their delighted audience; and

Whereas, Band Director Martin Dickey once again delivered the incredible training that enabled the Falcons to take home yet another championship trophy; and

Whereas, remembering that this new title win adds up to three state championships for Nation Ford, jubilant fans considered the probable necessity of building the band a new shelf to house their overflowing honors; and

Whereas, for the victorious Falcons, being selected to march in the eightyfifth Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, held November 24, 2011, in New York City, added a generous measure of glitz to an already scintillating season; and

Whereas, the House of Representatives, grateful for the Nation Ford marching band’s fine musicianship and representation of all the best in South Carolina’s young people, is pleased to recognize such an exceptionalgroup of young musicians. The members anticipate with interest hearing of similarly outstanding accomplishments to come. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, honorthe Nation FordHigh Schoolmarching band and Band Director Martin Dickey on winning the 2011South Carolina Band Directors Association Class AAAState Championship title.
