From a Future Independent Press Release
Future Independent Winterguard is proud to present our 2022 Program " Icon".
In the memory of dear friend and previous design advisor Keith Ping Dawson, our 2022 program highlights the many memories we shared together. We know that ping is our beginning connection to the network of knowledge we all share and provide to our students. When our audience experiences our production they will see and hear our many conversations with our legendary Icon. As we experience our final conversation with him we know he truly is the spotlight on our foundation and our experience. Until we meet our beloved friend again please enjoy our 2022 program Icon.
