YJ Staff Writer
The weekend of September
16-18 Brownwood welcomed
country stars Christian bands
and other organization and
activities to participate in the
fifth Brownwood reunion.
"This was my first Brownwood
reunion" junior Tyler Ogden
said. "It was quite a experi-
ence. It is so impressive that a
small town like Brownwood can
get such big bands to come. I
never thought that Brownwood
would be able to host a event
like this."
Each night various music
stars performed along with
other activities that went on
through out the day.
"I went to the Friday night
performance with the Randy
Rodgers band" junior Melanie
Chapman said. "It was real-
ly cool because we got VIP
tickets so we got to go into
a sectioned off area. I have
never really heard the Randy
Rodgers band and I was really
impressed with their skills."

Band Ten Mile Crossing and
