University Band Update: 10/27 - 11/1

KUDOS FOR A GREAT UNIVERSITY CLASSIC!
Congratulations to all for a smooth and professionally run marching band competition this Saturday. We have heard incredible, positive comments about this year’s festival. As usual, the adjudicators were extremely complimentary and commented that they love returning to our show as we run a show second to none! Thank you parents, students, alumni, alumni parents, friends, staff, and anyone I may have missed for your contributions to a successful festival. It really shows what kind of kids we have when you see them cleaning up in their homecoming dance dress. Thank you Cougars – you are all truly amazing!
