‘I see trees of green, red roses too’ A mix of old and new in Pride of the Tribe halftime show

Cliff Williams / The Herald The Wetumpka High School Pride of the Tribe Marching Band has already spent weeks working on this year’s halftime show. For three weeks the band participated in at least four hours of music rehearsals and practice putting in drill for the show.

If images of lush trees and flowers come to mind as the Wetumpka High School Pride of the Tribe Marching Band opens its halftime show this year, then it’s a goal accomplished for the band..

Starting with Louis Armstrong’s “What a Wonderful World,” it should get the crowd into the mood of this year’s performance. Band director Jason Warnix said the fanfare of an Armstrong favorite is one of several songs to take the crowd through the “Elements.”
