Canyon Band Officers
2002-2003 School Year

The Band Officers consist of eleven offices (President, Drum Major, Vice President, Assistant Drum Major, Secretary, Treasurer, Librarian, Uniform Manager, Equipment Manager, Social Chair, and Photo Historian).  The Drum Major and Assistant Drum Major are appointed by the Band Director while the other nine offices are elected by the members of the band.  The Drum Major and Assistant Drum Major are eligible to hold elected office.

Band elections last one week and are usually held in early May.  Nominations for the primary election are taken on Monday and Tuesday, with primary election voting on that Tuesday and Wednesday.  Voting in run-off elections takes place on Thursday and Friday.

Try-outs for Drum Major and Assistant Drum Major consist of three phases - conducting, mace work, and the interview.  Conducting and mace work take place on a single day in mid-May during Symphonic Band (Second Period).  The interview usually occurs at some other point on the same day.

The winners of the elections and try-outs are announced in early June at the Band Banquet.

In 2002-2003, the Drum Major happened to be elected Secretary while the Assistant Drum Major was also elected Social Chair.  There are two Uniform Managers in 2002-2003 because the two candidates tied in the run-off (there were only candidates in the run-off, so a second run-off was not conducted).
