Whereas, the Wildcat marching band is celebrating ten years of being in the top three finalists at state championships among its other numerous awards, which include the 2015 Indoor Winter Ensemble Championship and the 2015 South Carolina Championship for Winter Indoor Percussion; and

Whereas, in a field that demands discipline, precision, and energy, Band Director David N. Vickery and his skilled staff maximized their own musical ability and training to hone a championship team and teach these musicians lessons that will prove valuable throughout life; and

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives value the respect and recognition that the Ninety Six musicians have brought to their school and their community and look to hear of their continued accomplishments in the days to come. Now, therefore,
