Danpod Posted October 12, 2018 Report Share Posted October 12, 2018 I figured I would start a thread for an unprecedented amount of marching contests being cancelled on the same day!!

Asaiah Posted October 12, 2018 Report Share Posted October 12, 2018 It's a one stop shop for all your weather-related disappointment! But really, thanks for compiling the info, Danpod. Hoping Waco doesn't make the list, but I've already lowered my expectations just in case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcbg Posted October 13, 2018 Report Share Posted October 13, 2018 The rain this year has been insane. Where I am (College Station) it seems like there have only been 5 days since September it hasn't rained. Hopefully it stops soon, all these cancelled performances and contests are heartbreaking.

Majellan Posted October 13, 2018 Report Share Posted October 13, 2018 That’s the benefit of having a competition at the star st Frisco. The us bands contest won’t be cancelled, ideal venue or not. All you need is a roof this fall and the star has that:) This may be the first season I haven’t made a single contest. The rain is great, but I obviously wouldn’t do well in Seattle. jcbg 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KinDallas Posted October 13, 2018 Report Share Posted October 13, 2018 Marcus band is in route to Waco. The weather in Dallas is terrible. Good thoughts that we make it safely and BOA is still going when we get there. (I’m a band mom/chaperone, BTW). northtexasbandfan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lisajayes Posted October 13, 2018 Report Share Posted October 13, 2018 Thankful Birdville cancelled early. Newbie band parent question... Do these competitions ever get rescheduled or is that just too tough to do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samuel Culper Posted October 13, 2018 Report Share Posted October 13, 2018 Too tough. The only contests that will get rescheduled are UIL Region or Area contests. FloMoParent 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PSHSMom Posted October 13, 2018 Report Share Posted October 13, 2018 Marcus has pulled off the highway due to a tornado warning due south on our route. Yikes. I pray you all get home safe (not sure if you are turning around and driving back now that it is cancelled or attending some band clinics still). I can't imagine that drive has been very good at all.

Popular Post KinDallas Posted October 13, 2018 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 13, 2018 We went into the Red Oak Wal-Mart for an hour to shelter. We’re headed back to Dallas now. It’s been a wild Saturday! The kids have been really patient. I wish we could’ve marched but we had fun at ##BOAWalmart.
