( eek OMG! I love this thread, I put my favorites from this thread into Microsoft word...I'll be co-section leader next year and this'll be great for the freshman.)

~If thou art a freshman, go through thine initiation without complaint, or thine treatment shall be worse. xd
~Be afraid if thine graduated section leader becomes a field instructor.
~When thou art riding back on thine crappy bus after performance, if thine peers want to sleep, LET THEM! Or be severely punished.
~Honor thine section leaders and band instructors...for they hold thine fate.
~Honor thine break times by doing nothing.
~Thou shall not play marching music after championships.

(All I could think of...this is great! xd )
