Pictures from the First Competition in 1981

The following three photos were taken by the first competition that the Pride of Herndon band participated in. This was before they were known as the Pride of Herndon.

According to Dad Sadd, this competition was held at Culpepper High School. He recalls that the band received a "Fair" rating which was a real wakeup call.
