I`m sorry to say it was not bogus. Marching is a extra activity sort of lie a club or sport thign you knowlike dance team,football etc. Of course it wont be on the coruse listning.s You need ot go to extra currlicurle activities to find it you know. Also, the students did not play because their parents were sending in complaints saying they did not want their children to play therefor, they had to decline the offer my friend is in the marching band she didn't mind playing but some students parents were outraged and problay did not like Bush or something like that so they did not want them to play.
Umm it was the parents that sent in complaints because they were outraged and did not want their kids ot play so yes it was the kids choice. Tehir parents were rpoblay just against Bush thats all. Look into things before you say something without knowing the whole truth.
