Solanco Marching Band To Present “Heart” The 2019 Solanco High School Black and Gold Marching Band is aiming to provide entertaining and exciting football field shows and marching band showcases this season. The show, titled “Heart,” will be presented in three movements: “Heart Rate,” “Heartbreak,” and “Heartbeat.” “The show will feature the music of composer Randall Standridge,” Solanco High School band director Scott Weyman said. “‘Heart Rate’ is an energetic show opener that represents the first stages of life from the detection of the initial heartbeat through the boundless energy of youth,” Weyman said. “‘Heartbreak’ is a contemporary ballad that represents the devastation of pain and disappointment, but is actually lush and beautiful at the same time. ‘Heartbeat’ is the forceful and triumphant closer - delivered with even more energy
than the opener - that portrays the resilience of the human spirit.” According to Weyman, Standridge has been successful in the world of symphonic band. “Our students have mastered a few of his original works for concert band, and I have found his compositions to be as challenging as they are exciting. The kids have very much taken to his work,” Weyman noted. “When I discovered his love of composing for the marching band, it was clear that his compositions would be a great vehicle for us to inspire and motivate our students. I also believe that our audiences both at football games and at marching band showcases will find this show to be highly engaging, expressive, and memorable.” “Heart” will debut on Thursday, Aug. 22, at the football field at Solanco High School, 585 Solanco Road, Quarryville.

working together to demystify the stock market and the process of investing in stocks. “The purpose of the club is mostly education, to get comfortable with basics and concepts of investing and have a little fun while we’re doing it,” explained senior partner Chris Milsom. “ We were spurred on by the Beardstown Ladies club,” she added, referencing “The Beardstown Ladies’ Common-Sense Investment Guide: How We Beat See MoneyMakers Club pg 7

Driving Forward HVMI Schedules Golf Outing By Ann Mead Ash
Kyle Robinson, executive director of Handi*Vangelism Ministries International (HVMI), has a lot on his plate. Not too long ago, the ministry purchased the land at 3261 Rothsville
Road, Akron, and work to receive approvals to locate camps, retreat centers, and day programs there is underway, with HVMI planning a capital fund campaign to begin in the fall.
