APRIL 7, 1955 - The membership of the Senior Band of Marion Central School were awarded the Best Appearing Band Trophy at the Wayne County Music Festival held at Wayne Central.

Easter falls officially on the first Sunday after the full moon after the spring equinox. It is not coincident that this corresponds with the beginning of spring, for the Christian celebration of Christ's resurrection replicated far more ancient pagan celebrations that have to do with the return of the sun. The deliberate linking of sun and SON is a motif throughout Christian literature.
