Great job this weekend!

Congratulations to everyone on two great performances this weekend!

At NIU on Saturday, the band placed 3rd in class 4A. We also ranked 5th overall out of the 30 total bands in the competition. It was certainly an exciting evening performing in the NIU stadium, and we are very happy with our results! Our music scores in particular showed much improvement from the previous week.

On Sunday, the band competed in the Grundy County Corn Festival Parade, placing first in our class and winning Caption Awards for best horn line, best drum majors, and best color guard.

Great job, band! You had a week of very focused, productive rehearsals and warm-ups coming into this weekend and your hard work definitely showed in our performances.

This week we have rehearsal on Monday, 9/27 ONLY - no practice on Wednesday 9/29 due to the PowderPuff football game. Let's have a great rehearsal and a successful performance at the homecoming football game on Friday! Keep up the good work - your directors and instructors are very excited for the rest of our season.
