On Saturday afternoon, the Salisbury Middle School Twirlers captured their sixteenth TIA Middle School Twirling championship. The 2010 program is set to the musical Selection "The Kite Song" by Rosie Thomas. The squad consists of 10 students in grades 6 through 8 and is the training program for the Falcons.
The Middle School twirlers are sponsored by the Salisbury Twirling Boosters and the Salisbury Township School District. They have compiled and impressive list of accomplishments on their own; they have won 15 All Chapter Middle School Championships, 4 Jennifer Joy Dillman awards for most improved twirling squad and 20 consecutive Chapter 2 Middle School Championships.

Congratulations to Timber Creek High School for their 1st place finish in Scholastic A Class percussion at the WGI World Championships in Dayton, OH. WGI's review of their performance:
The members of Timber Creek (NJ) (Gold Medal- 96.713) were bits of data scurrying around their computer circuit board tarp with “CPU.” As the line marched and played with a machine-like precision, a synthesized female voice described the various internal operations that were taking place. The package began with very musical work from the pit as they were booting up. Once they were operational, the battery joined in with vigor. Sounds of a modem dialing indicated the group was going online, but unfortunately they downloaded a virus once they were connected, causing them to crash at the conclusion with a massive system failure.
