What HS Senior good-bye message should I give to the Marching Band kids? shows band is important. help!!?

So I was in band as well, if you're not one to practice, but band is really important to you, just say something like "I'll miss you all and I really hope that you all enjoy the time you have in band, because it is something that you'll always remember, and this group will only be together this year.." something along those lines, just some ideas :)
