CHS Pep Band members Amaya Hannigan and Rylie McDonough pick up trash in Colbert Gymnasium following the CHS vs Red Bud basketball game Monday, Feb. 14. With CHS currently facing a strained janitorial staff, band director Steve Colonel and his pep band volunteered to pick up trash in the gym after home basketball games. With everyone helping, the gym was typically cleared of trash within 15 minutes. Besides helping keep the gym clean and lessening the load on an already strained janitorial staff, the gesture by the band served to teach students about community service and helped to build ownership of their school.
