The Stig

Apollo.. What has happened there in the last several years has been unfortunate. This is one program that was so close in the 90's and in the 2000's on has been sad to see. As an alum and someone who digs deep, I cannot place blame on one person but several unfortunate and miscalculated decisions throughout the whole school system. It also baffles me to see DCHS thrive during that time with quite possibly as many different directors. I would love to see them grow into something great but a lot of things need to change.

Etown.. It was amazing to watch in the 90’s and early 2000’s. It was absolutely disappointing to see what an administration can do to such a great, avant-garde program.

Edmonson County is open. This is a ms/hs job.

I hate to hear that. I hope everything is okay.

😲 It reminds me of all of those schools that passed over people like myself 4-8 years ago. It makes no sense to me unless someone left on their own. I wonder if the pressure got to the director at Bullitt East. I also wondering what happened at Warren Central.

Add Bullitt East and Warren Central to the list.

There is always a reason. What it may be, could make no sense to anyone on the outside. There has to be more to it.

I hate to say it but I am glad I switched careers when I did.. In the 2010's several bands when non-competitive. Some went before that. What is going to hurt is the overall budgets activities get from fundraising. Several small and large businesses are going to be hurt and will not have that extra discretionary spending. In many places, the head band director gets the same stipend as the football coach and Boys basketball coach. Where is that money going to come from? Also, many of these positions that are open are because someone didn't have tenure. I am more curious to see what is going on in Butler County. He was there for 15 years AND that was his first job out of college. It is safe to say Bowling Green was a retirement. I have asked around and haven't heard anything. What about you all? Any news? I DO NOT want speculation or assumptions. This thread is a fact finding mission. Please keep it at that.

I hate hearing bad things happening to good people. I hope these directors land in their feet.

Adding Caldwell Co to the list.

Butler County is open.

They did 2 years ago. Its not a bad community.

Muhlenberg has already planned theirs.

Nothing wrong with the precautions. I just hope everyone can return to work safely.

In Spain, they have canceled the running of the bulls. In Germany, they have canceled Oktoberfest. that’s what I’ve heard as of today.
