The U.S. Army All-American Bowl presented by American Family Insurance Selection Tour visited South Lakes High School to recognize David Clark as a member of the 2017 U.S. Army All-American Marching Band, honoring this student before his fellow band members, classmates, friends and family during a special recognition event.
The U.S. Army All-American Marching Band performs each year at halftime of the nationally-broadcasted U.S. Army All-American Bowl. By becoming a U.S. Army All-American, Clark is joining an elite group. Only 125 high school marching band members among the millions in the United States are selected. Band members are chosen not just because they excel musically, but because they are mentally and physically agile, they know the importance of teamwork, and they are able to adapt to challenging situations, similar to U.S. Army Soldiers.
