It’s always tough being the first band on in your class, but these kids were what we call “the measuring stick” today. 1st in Class A competition with the Outstanding General Effect award, as well. Two weeks until ISU!

Despite the change of conditions due to heat, the GEMB showed flexibility, patience and resilience and won 1st Place, “Best Music” and “Best General Effect” at the Lake Park Lancer Joust marching band competition.

Fun to get back into it after the first three game we were supposed to play were cancelled or changed due to weather. Good win for the home team! Also great to see 7 of our percussionists perform with the Crystal Lake Strikers Drumline in their first performance of the season.

Good luck today, @D300BoysSwim!
