HONORING MUNFORD HIGH SCHOOL BAND

Congressional Record, Volume 164 Issue 194 (Monday, December 10, 2018) [Congressional Record Volume 164, Number 194 (Monday, December 10, 2018)] [House] [Page H9772] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] HONORING MUNFORD HIGH SCHOOL BAND The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Chair recognizes the gentleman from Tennessee (Mr. Kustoff) for 5 minutes. Mr. KUSTOFF of Tennessee. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the students of the Munford High School marching band. About 265 students from Tipton County, Tennessee, will represent Munford High School in the Tournament of Roses Parade. This annual tradition takes place each year in Pasadena, California, on New Year's Day. It is a distinct honor to be invited to march in the Tournament of Roses Parade, with only five bands from across the Nation receiving an invitation each year. Munford High School will be the only band from the mid-South area selected for this event. This talented group of students, led by Dr. Courtney Fee and director Barry Trobaugh, will be proudly representing not only Munford High School but the entire State of Tennessee. They have made our community proud. To the students: You have worked really long and hard hours for this day to come. I hope you take in each and every moment of this incredible opportunity in Pasadena. May you remember this moment and this honor for many years to come. Best of luck, Cougars. Tennessee is really proud of you. ____________________
