Dear Marching Pride and
Rockets Alumni,
We have not heard anything recently about any reunions of the Marching
Rockets/Pride at Homecoming but we do know each year that there is at
least a small contingent of band members who gather. So, if you
get a chance at least stop by the alumni tent and ask! Or,
better yet, let me know and I am happy to post it here.
I do know that someone I always considered
a close friend, Sandi Wickerham (Novak) a former Rocklette Captain is
local and attends. She may know more.
I get updates from time to time for the
database but if you check your record and it is no longer correct
please let me know.
I am still designing web sites and also
working with an energy company so it keeps me busy but there is always
time to help out here!
P.S. I noticed a couple of
glitches with the music and .pdf files and those have been fixed and
are working again so you can enjoy them once more.

The Slippery Rock Marching Rockets
and Pride Alumni have
been involved in at least six reunion meetings on Campus.
The 2002 Reunion was as
"expected" both fun and as unexpected.......NOT WET!
Of course this was a special year.
The
Marching Band field was dedicated FOREVER as the
Blase S. Scarnati Marching Band
Field.
Mr. S. sent us a special message he asked us
to share. So in his own words:
Dear Kevin:
There are just too many thank you's to write and
send to various individuals, so I thought something over our web site
would do the trick. Could you send the following:

October 9, 2002
Dear Marching Rockets,
I wish to thank everyone for the warmth, love
and friendship that was displayed for the field dedication and
the roast. Never have I felt so honored in all my career.
Those that did not attend really missed an event that will
never be duplicated, just remembered. I felt like I was on a
roller coaster the entire day. What fun!
You are a proud bunch of individuals
and I hope you continue to come back for Homecoming. It
only takes one person to call another person who calls another
person and before you know it you have a gathering of all of
your old Marching friends. You had something great. Don't
throw it away.
I will be forever thankful for the
field dedication. As one person said, "It is good to know
someone that has something named for them before they die". I
hope to be around for a long time with the good Lord willing.
Remember to "Shine Like New Money" and I hope to see everyone
for Homecoming 2003.
Love ya all,
'S'
