Here's to my son Michael and the rest of his school's marching band. I helped chaperone their trip to their first field competition today, and they came home with a FIRST PLACE trophy!
I'm really proud of him and the rest of the kids. They have worked so hard getting ready for the season, as well as for each individual event (today alone was a 12 hour itinerary!). The band has a long history of success, including multiple state championships. But the last couple years have been a bit of a "rebuilding" period for them. They've won parade competitions during that time, but finished no higher than 2nd place on the field in 2012 and 2013. So it's great to start the 2014 season off with a big win!
