CW vs Kelly

If I'm not mistaken, Priode was at Clintwood before he went to JJ Kelly. I was thinking he was a Clintwood graduate if I'm not mistaken.

I think he was as well. Was there a Mr. Priest there also?

There was Randy Pruitt (early 80's)

On a somewhat related tangent I found this http://www.vwc.state.va.us/listdecis...008538.REV.doc
while looking up names. It's the first I've heard of it (and I didn't realize that CHS had a director as late as 2000)

When was the music program booted from Dickenson County?

I think you are correct on Priest,, possibly during the MEAN GREEN MARCHING MACHINE DAYS,, I think he may have ended up at Pulaski...

I would just have to say that Bud Stewart is MR. Band!!! He is great with the kids and they always take home trophies in competition. He puts in hours and hours and the kids respect him and that is why one of the smallest schools in the area has the largest(and best) band around!!!

You are correct on Mr Priest. I think that is when the MGMC started.

Bob Priest was there. I think he was followed by a Terry Baber or something like that.

I may be wrong about Priode, he may have just graduated from Clintwood.
