Back in 1972 the Spartanburg Christmas Parade was always on the Friday morning after Thanksgiving.
I was "drum major" for the Cowpens High School Band when we marched in the parade for the first time in many years.
Roger Cox was our new band director and he continued as the director for many years including at the new Broome High School.
Loretta, my sister, is playing the bell lyra, but sadly I cannot remember the names of all of these great people!
