First Competition!

We had our first two competitions yesturday! Sorry i forgot to post times. We went to North Harrison firts and had to do a stand still performance because their footbal team played friday and it rained and was tore up pretty bad! So instead of giving us a visual score they just doubled our music score. We ended up getting second which would have been great and all if there werent just two bands there! But we also got some extra awards which were Best Percussion (which i am included in! Go Me!), Best General effect and Best Pit Crew( which is kind of me
also). We ended up with a score of 55 out of 100 which isnt bad for our forst competiton of the year! There were only 6 bands there two bands in each class i think it was becuase of the rain. But i didnt think that there field was that bad! After we ate some delicious McDonalds and practiced a little more a NH we traveled to Corydon Central High School! Their field was worse the spot were the pit had to stand was a big mud hole it was horrible. We just got new uniforms white pants white shoes. Not a pretty site after that. But we did a little better at Corydon's Competition and by a little i mean a lot! We got Best Auxilary( flags), Best Music, Best General Effect, and Best Visual! So i think that you have already figured out if you have ever been in a band world that we also got 1st Place! To me i didnt think that we did all that well but we were only 4 points behind Jefforsonville and they are in a class ahead of us and they got third out od 4 bands so i dont know if we got a higher score then Bloomington South he did say because our director wont tell us until monday! So when i find out i will post! But our next competition is now on Sat. the 20 in paoli i dont know the time yet but if anyone wants to know just ask!
