"The Flock" qualified for the STATE Marching Festival held on Sat. Nov.4th @ Dobson HS in Mesa, AZ.
They have been competing all season to be one of the top 20 Bands in our Division which would award us an invitation to the State Marching Festival where the top 20 bands in each Division battle it out to earn the top 8 spots who will then conitnue to the FINALS (affectionately name "Super State")
This festival is quite an honor and means that your band is one of the top 8 in the state of your size. ((Band size not school size, we compete with much larger schools.) This festival will give students a chance to march in Sun Devil Stadium at ASU and share the field with 31 other bands of their caliber (and beyond!)
This event is the AZ STATE MARCHING CHAMPIONSHIP and it will take place on Sat. Nov.18th.
The STATE MARCHING FESTIVAL is next Sat., Nov.4th. Details and schedule are listed below.
***The performance times are in the order the bands currently sit going into the festival.
Yes, you have read the schedule right, we are currently sitting in 6TH PLACE in our DIVISION!!!
This means clear your schedule, there is a good chance we may be marching in the CHAMPIONSHIPS for the first time ever.
