REVIEWING THE YEAR. . ,
The Lincoln Alumni Band
The vear of
2OOO
Cathy Carr Langr€d€r '74
proved to be yet another exciting year for the Lincoln Alumni Band under the direction of
Mrrk Irwe
'75.
It began with a number of tehearsats in preparation for the summel of pa.rades. The rehearsal tlBt slands oui in everyone's
mind, of course, is when we mdched from the Stark County Fairgrounds tkough Harer Heights, wilh a brief break and small
concert at the Biasellas' house. The Biasellas have always been prepared for our "Trek Tkough the Heights" ty decorating their
house with maroon, gold, and Lincoln memorabilia. They usually have ftienals and neighbors out on the lawll to cheer us on
and offer refteshments. This is repaid in lhe only *ay that wE can__a concefll Aier our stop a! Biasellas', \,ve continued
through the neighborhood. With the help of the banner cariers acting as crossing guards, we made it a.ross four lanes of trafrc
168. We
on west TuscarawEs and ended up being treated to ice cream al Heg$/s, compliments of Jatret Weir Creighton
needed a few extra rehearsals aIler that to work ofi the exlra calories!
We also performed in the Hall ofFame Kick-OffParade and the Grand Parade again. [t is always such a thrill to ma.rch up
West Tuscaraw2s or Cleveland Avenue to the sounals of National Emblem and hear the cheers ftom the crowd. The walher
cooperated for both paracles. and we were able to finish before it rained.
Our performance at the Stark County Fair i{as well received by the cro\ad. Mark Lo}!e did his usual exc€llent job as emcee
and kept the audience involved in the perforrnance.
Our last performance of the year was at the Louisville Constitution Day Parade in September. We were proud to *alk away
from that with a second place trophy in the "Best ofBan&" category.
The Lincoln Band is alrays looldng for new members. As wE get older, some of us may not feel up lo marcfun& but there
are many other performances that \)ve do where marching is not involved. It is still a thrill to play in the Lincoln Band, and
those fornrer band members who are not involved arc missing out. lfyou are interested in participating, pleale contact Cathy
Langreder at 330-478-0006. []

accomplishments and those of the Lincoln Band under his
direction. There are many poople \}'l1o know those items far
tetter than I do and remember them ftr more clearly. I have
liv€d 5,OOO miles away from Canton and northeastern Ohio
for almost 25 years, and I haven't had the opponunities to
participate
in the Alumni Band actMties (except at the Stark

Bayless was active in for so many yea$, including the year6

It is importatrt to always do your best.

With that praclice, I continued to improve, until I llas no
longer an embarrassment to the band, or myselll Hard $'ork
my tiitrman year,
1ot
really v,orked!
High erpcctrtions yietd high levels of results.
ttlr. Bayless alBays, always expected us to do our best. He
aould not srttle for Prformance thal was mediode. lf the
band did not play a section w!ll, then he had the band play
that section over and over again, until it wa6 played l,ell As
a member of the ban4 )ou knew that he expecled the best
every time you playe4 and it forced you to exped the best
ftom yourself
There rre worderful tchieveme s that olrly com€ from a
team of pcople.
The music that came ftom the band when it wa6 at its best'
v?as nagical. It'6 hard to believe that a bunch of ordinary
high 6chool students could play 6uch beauliful music Clhere
$,ere no "magnet schools" at lhat time!) I call remember
I knew the band had
played really ucll. when I knew that Mr. Bayless had poured
his hean and soul inlo lhe preparallon and direriion. and $€
tum with our performance. Those
had responded
experiences can only come as a part of a team' not an an

Individual performanc€ is critical to team performance.
The richnes; ofthe soulds ftom the band came Aom each band
membels performance. It \las like the saying in theater
circles, "There are no small roles, only small actors." Ml.
Bayless knew that each band member's perfomance \'!2s
important to the overall Prformance ofthe band and he *ould
not allow any member 10 slack ofr in hisrher PrformanceMusic is b€.utiful.
I took a music appreciation class ifi collegp, but where I really
learned to appreciale muslc was in the Lincoln Band, We were
exposed to so many diferent musical work, that I learned to
love music while in high school. Mr. Bayles6 didn't just drill
with the pieces that vmuld be played at a band competition.
always had us play a wide range of music' and a large
number of pieces. Many of those musical works I enjoy

get lhe band to perform the music with the passion thal he
also felt. He had a good understanding of the musrc and
composers and \)vould always give us lhe history of the pieces

leamed them.
Mr. Toot taught ar six difrerent hrgh schools and one college

Dressing for the evening probably brought many, many
thoughts of events that were held at the school Alumni
attendrng the Annual Meeting dressed for the LHS sPirit.
School jackets, emblemed slveatshirts, maroon and gold colors
*ere present eve4/where....pride, emotion, and memory stired.
This authols memory stiffed 10 novies during lunch break,
basketball games, sock hops, Army-Na\,y games, meeting
friends, May Fiesta, band practices, study halls, favorite
teachers, grrls' leaders, art classes. white bucks, saddle sho€s'
duckbills, British Walkers, cordovans, tailor_mades, pearl
chokers. cardigan sweaters buttoned do*n the back, etc Truly a
rughr for nostalgia.
Many visions must have been conjured up in former students'
memory book. KEEPING TI{E SPIRIT ALIVE will go on!
The Alumni Band performed brilliantly. Their music caused
goose bumps: and. although some people {ouldn't admit it, tears

Matt Patron, one of his former students, presenled him

how he }l?nted to attend Lincoln so badly because he loved
the band s fight song so much. He said his Lincoln memories
are wonderful and that each of us "old lions" is b€tter ofr
today in some way for having attended Lincoln. His higher
education gave him the parchment and tools for teaching bul
it was Canton Lincoln, the faculty, the students, the extra and

the tnre foundation to use his talents and obrain his goals.
Even though the alumni association was honoring him for his

George said his brother is a man of strength ard ctraracter, an
inspirational story of success that sends the message that

that Christ played for the legenalary Paul Bear Bryant and wa!

Vagotis family was well represented at the dinner.
Ckist ielated how he played pick-up football with his
friends when growing up, but he uas aluays the Ia$ one

wasnt a very good student at Lincoln because he never
thought it was important And. for sure, "I never thought I

grade school and high school coaches, especially Lou
Venditti, with being his role models. Although gratetul for

throughout the building were replaced, and all windows received new blinds
creating a uniform look throughout.
The project received support from Lincoln alulnni, from Heritage
families, stafr. and alumni, from outside businesses, and gmnts from area
foundarions. A "Window Celebration \.!as held on September 28, 2000, at
