Bandies BandVolunteers

At 8 am Saturday, July 16, close to 100 runners took to the streets around the high school in the first annual UA5K.  The race was produced by Endurance Sports Productions, owned by Upper Arlington residents Monica Sencio and Scott Weaver. Registered runners could choose to have a portion of their entrance fee donated to the Upper Arlington Band, or other UAHS, Hastings or Jones athletic teams. A number of “bandies” were in attendance either on the course or volunteering.

Despite the threat of inclement weather, the Upper Arlington 4th of July parade went on as scheduled. The Upper Arlington Marching Band, including the incoming freshmen class, brought the pride, power and spirit of the band to the throngs of friends, families and neighbors at this UA tradition. Lead by drum majors Elizabeth Geil and Rachel Ryan, the band played a blend of patriotic music and the UA fight song (Stand Up and Cheer) to the delight of the crowd.
