BigWinners 1,643 Report Share Posted September 18, 2019 Soccer seems to be becoming more of a factor as well. I enjoy watching soccer, it wasn't big at all when I was a kid and even if it was, I'm way too fat for it, but it's not without risks.

big ugly vol 92 Report Share Posted September 18, 2019 Soccer is more physical than what I thought it would be. My son played one year and I tried, I really did, but I hated every second of watching it. Thank god he went back to track in the spring.

Union_Fan 2,154 Report Share Posted October 1, 2019 A little good coming out of a bad situation.

The Bland band came and played for visiting Montcalm when they played at Tazewell. Really neat idea for those kids.

They even played at a Bluefield College game. I hope other area schools will invite them to perform. Ryan4VT 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very good performance and good numbers considering. Hope they get opportunities elsewhere as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
