          No responsibilities are listed in the by-laws.

          Tim has been a member of the band for 20 years. He has been in Bloomington since 1980 due to a job transfer.  Tim is currently an area sales manager for a “presentation technology company”; previously he taught instrumental music in Danville, Indiana and Sharpsville, Pennsylvania.

          Betty’s responsibility is “to collect concert programs and publicity pertaining to the Band” and to organize it into an orderly file system.

          Betty has retired from the band due to illnesses.  She played the bass drum for many years, but had to give it up when she became ill.  One can see her occasionally at musical events presented by the School of Music at Indiana University.
