Whereas, sixty-three members strong, the Ninety Six High School marching band headed into its state win with the 2009 Class A Upper State Marching Band Championship title already safely sent home; and
Whereas, the Ninety Six High School marching band's 2009 record clearly testifies to the musical and instructional excellence of its director, David Vickery, and its assistant director, Joey Bagwell; and
