Welcome to the 2002-2003 edition of TigerRag, the official online journal of The Santa Ana Winds.
This edition is just starting, so get your articles ready.
If you have anything to say, email SAW and please state in the title that your letter is for TigerRag. The nice thing about an online journal is it can continually be updated.
Rules:
No profanity.
No mention of rivalries (school or otherwise).
Nothing to disgrace other Winds members.
As editor, I have final say over what is published. By no means does this replace the Guestbook, which is for small comments and hellos to Mr. Ward. TigerRag is meant to satisfy the informational needs of Winds members and increase the strong unity among the group.

Winds on Boston Public
by Robyn Guest - Trombone
The Santa Ana Winds were invited to do a taping with the hit television drama, Boston Public. Only members over 18 years of age were invited to the taping, and for good reason. But you'll just have to wait and see. Without exposing too much, I'll only say it was quite an original experience for all of us. Probably very few members have worked in profession telelvision studios before, and it was a unique look into the life of the actors and actresses we know so well. But no, we did not see Jeri Ryan! The episode will air in October, but since it's on Mondays, Winds members may want to remind their parents to tape the show.
Seattle Again?
Are the rumors true? Will the Santa Ana Winds be heading back to the Pacific Northwest for another go at the Seattle Seafare Parade?
Hopefully we'll know at the start of this season. Seattle 2001 was a blast! I'm sure Seattle 2003 will be an equal success.

College of the Season
To help high school students choose a wise educational plan, we're continuing the tradition of the original TigerRag by having our college-attending Winds members/alumni to write about their campus. If you are attending a college or used to attend one, and would like to write a little about it, please send us your comments and we will post them.
Enough said, now who wants to do the next college? Send us a small write up: what you like, what you don't like, and try to add a little info on the music program if you can. Thanks!
