Framed - Warwick Band Show Spotlights Pictures BY ANN MEAD ASH
eekdays from Aug. 1 through 4 from 2 to 9 p.m., the nearly 85 members of the Warwick High School (WHS) marching band focused not on the heat, but on “Pictures Reframed” as they practiced the show based on “Pictures at an Exhibition,” originally an orchestral piece.

WHS band director Matthew Tenaglia explained that the show is in three movements - an opener, a ballad, and a closer. “‘Pictures at an Exhibition’ is a major symphonic work, but we are modernizing it by adding a marching band flair,” he said, noting that the drill is based on a play on words, with marchers forming boxes on the field. “(The show)
will be very linear based,” he said, adding that band members will be creating pictures inside the boxes. He stated that the music is more loud and aggressive than pieces the band has used previously. The show will highlight the work of specific band members in a woodwind feature, a brass feature, and two drum breaks. The 10 color guards will spin 6-foot
flags during the drill. Drum major Hayden Milchanowski said that the “coolest thing” about the show is the music, which he enjoys more as a conductor than as a musician. “I am hearing it from a listening perspective,” said Milchanowski, who added that he is challenged by remembering all the measures and set numbers.
Band members have responded to the music with enthusiasm. Woodwind captain Maggie Turner noted that it has been fun to turn a recognizable classical piece into a marching band tune. Fellow woodwind captain Jack Haught said that the music will have “pizzazz.” “What we’re doing with the marching music will jazz it up a bit,” said Turner. See WHS pg 6

In 1973, Landis Homes, 1001 E. Oregon Road, Lititz, held its first chicken barbecue, an event that would come to be known as Fellowship Days, which now includes a benefit auction, food, presentations, yard and craft sales, a talent show, a parade, and children’s activities. The event now benefits the Caring Fund, which was created in 1983 to help Landis Homes residents who had exhausted their financial resources. See Landis Homes pg 5
Bill Terry founded the Vets Breakfast Club that is open to all Lancaster County veterans.
Several years ago, Navy veteran Bill Terry wore his Navy cap to a rally in Gettysburg. Someone took note of his service and asked if he went to the monthly veterans breakfast in Gettysburg. “I had never heard of it or been there,” said Terry. Not long after that conversation, Terry made the hour-and-45-minute trip to Gettysburg to attend a breakfast. “(The veterans) had been meeting 12 to 15 years,” reported Terry. “I thought, ‘We don’t have anything like this in Lancaster.’”

Terry decided to start a group locally, so he drove from Gettysburg to the Lyndon Diner in Lancaster. “I told (representatives of the Lyndon Diner) what I wanted to do, and they offered the back room,” said Terry, who noted that at first attendees ordered off the menu. “For the first meeting, 23 showed up,” said Terry, who added that three of those still attend. The Vets Breakfast Club now meets on the third Saturday of each month at the Bird-in-Hand Family Restaurant and Smorgasbord, 2760 Old Philadelphia Pike, Bird-inHand. Due to a conflict, the meeting on Saturday, Sept. 17, will be See Vets Breakfast Club pg 3
