Wow!

Congratulations! Robbyn, Mya, Alex, Amber, Cate Joseph, Morgan, Anna, Jatonica and Terencea. I am so proud of the accomplishments that you have made over the past two weeks. To have your first competition, get promoted and then add so much new material, compete again and come home with another trophy is a great accomplishment. The work, dedication and pride that you are taking in yourself and the group is being recognized. Congratulations on your 3rd place finish, a close third too, 2nd was not that far away.


I hope each of you have a great feeling of accomplishment right now... because you should.

We will have regular practice on Tuesday, where we will listen to judges tapes and try to start fixing some things. Our next contest is a good ways away, however, we do not need to relax too much. Let's take advantage of this time opportunity to clean and get better daily. Practice at home, that will help as well. We will take off Tuesday, Feb. 24th due to honorband auditions. I am sure ALL of you are trying out!

I am currently working on information for championships and will have that to you soon. I will get the Hoover contest information to you as soon as I know it.

Check out the band blog for a writeup about you guys too!
