Marching Warriors have got that swing BY JEFF FALK
Band is a season just like any other season. It’s a process measured by progress - progress fueled by hard work, repetition and growth. At this point, the Warwick High School marching band’s fall season is well underway. Following some spring and summer drills, the Warwick marching band began its preseason

Typically, during band season, you want to get feedback. By the end of September, you have 100% of (the

Lancaster County Postcard Club sets expo We are not hoarders; we are sentimental creatures. We are not collectors; we are protectors of memories. For many, postcards hold great value. They can be seen as monetized sentimentality. On Saturday, Aug. 19, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., the Lancaster County Postcard Club will conduct its annual expo and show at the Farm and Home Center, 1383 Arcadia Road, Lancaster. Admission to the event is free.
“People collect multiple things for all different reasons,” said Gordon Smith, a member of the Lancaster County Postcard Club who’s organizing the expo. “It depends on what draws their interest. Some people collect postcards for the post marks from different post offices. Some people collect them for the stamps. The show is an opportunity for people to get together and talk about postcards and explore postcards.” Postcards will be displayed on 45 tables - about 10 more than in 2022 - by 20 vendors or dealers, some from as far away as Maryland, New York, Delaware, Ohio, See Expo pg 5
