Cambridge marching band leaves for Grand Nationals By ANNABELLE REITER annabelle@appenmedia.com MILTON, Ga — The Milton community gathered at Cambridge High School for a send-off ceremony Nov. 11 for the Cambridge High School Marching Band before it headed for the Grand Nationals, Nov. 14-16, in Indianapolis. Speakers at the ceremony included the president of the band booster club, Cindy Roberts, Milton Mayor Peyton Jamison, Fulton County School Board member Lillie Pozatek, Cambridge High Principal Ashley Agans and Marching Band Director Daniel Scott. “Legacy is built through
community,” Scott said. Following the performance, Scott said that in his four years heading the group, “it’s been amazing to see seniors, my first group of freshman, end their band careers with the culmination of all their hard work in Grand Nationals.” He said his experience at Grand Nationals as a high school freshman was what led him to be a drum major and eventually a band director. “That’s the reason I’m standing here in this moment, I know this competition will create the same energy for them,” Scott said.
