Lisa Hummitsch

for DECEMBER 2000

Greetings!!

As our turkey is settling and the festivities of another Thanksgiving have past, the band looks forward to it's annual Holiday Concert on December 3rd.

After the concert, we usually take about a month off to allow the Christmas season to enter into it's full swing.

Our December Band Member of the Month is a woman who hails from our flute section. She seems to always be smiling and enjoys getting together to have fun, whether that is playing board games at someone's house or sitting at our favorite "watering hole" after rehearsal. Ms. December is Lisa Hummitsch! Woo hoo!!!

Humbly mitted,

Linda Riha
BMOTM Editor
