Band of the Week: Eastwood High School Marching Band This week, we pay a visit to Pemberville. It's home to the Eastwood Eagles and to our next Band of the Week. The Eastwood High School Marching Band is a small but mighty group of 47 students. It's a family tradition and for at least the past 24 years, the Eastwood band has had at least one set of twins. This year, they have three sets of twins! The group used to be much larger. A senior member of the band remembers when he first started and the drumline was twice the size it is now. "It was difficult to cope with at first, but then you learn that just because the band isn’t so big, it’s still got heart," snare drummer Joseph Hohman said. "And I feel like this band, as much as any, has as much heart as any we had before. It’s really fun to play with these guys every day. I love it." Kailin Wargo, an Eastwood senior, started her musical career in sixth grade playing alto saxophone. Now she's a field commander for the marching band and leads the Eagles on and off the field, including during parades. The band isn't big, which makes Band of the Week even more meaningful for Eastwood. "It’s pretty special," she said. "We’re sort of a small, small school. We don’t get as much attention as the bigger schools in our area. So it’s kind of special to have that attention on us." http://hollyomlor.com/Podcasts/Eastwood480.mp4
