Thomson High School Bulldog Brigade members Tim Pounds (left) and Steve Holbert share a laugh in the band room prior to boarding a bus to Atlanta Wednesday morning.
Band members left Wednesday for a trip to Hawaii, which will include a special performance to commemorate the 65th anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor.
"I'm the only one who is going to be comfortable when I get the there," said Tim, who wore shorts and a Hawaiian shirt for the trip. "The rest of you are going to be hot."
