Today's made me realize how crazy Marching Band is...
Not only does it teach your leadership and determination, we run events like our own show and have to finance our own band, so we do a whole host of events that we work at.
Like today, we had our annual 'Crab Feed' where we sell tickets for 35$ and play Jazz music while we feed people pasta, shrimp, crab, garlic bread, cake, and other such things. I got to be a waiter for 3 tables (Around 24 people) and basically just get some work experience in, see what it's like to have a job.
Not to mention the independence we learn, such as going across the ocean to other countries by ourselves. Overall, it's a pretty awesome activity to be involved in.
