Band Concert at Dixon Brought Out Principal Iron Man

Last night the Dixon Middle Concert and Jazz Bands performed for a full house in the school Gymnasium to the delight of all who attended. Starting with the 6th grade Concert Band, Gary E. Alsup conducted a notable series of music that even included songs to honor America's history as well as some boogie.

When the 7th grade Concert Band took center stage, the crowd was thrilled with the solos as well as the overall talent of the entire group. There was even a series saluting our military attendees. Standing ovations were the norm for much of the evening as this talented group of kids showed off the hard work they have put in throughout the year.

Then the Jazz Band took to the stage and played a series ranging from Carl Strommen through Evil Ways made popular by Carlos Santana. During this very entertaining period, the Jazz Band began an intro into the song "Iron Man" which brought out Principal James Strope dressed as Iron Man dancing to the rhythms before "flying off" out of the gym.

Congratulations to all who put on this fantastic evening of musical entertainment and kudos to the Dixon bands who have put in so much time and effort to make it all possible.

Who Do You GoodSearch For?

Imagine if every time you logged on and performed an online search, you earned money for your favorite school or charity. With each search you launch on goodsearch.com, approximately 1 cent goes to the charity or school of your choice. I requested the addition of Dixon Middle School.

You simply select an organization from a database of thousands or add your own, then tell all your friends, tell them to tell their friends and so on. If 1,000 people with the same charity search twice a day for a year, the charity earns $7,300.

Wanting to harness for mankind some of the money advertisers throw at search engines (approx. $6 billion last year), founders Ken and JJ Ramberg partnered with Yahoo!
