I'll probably choose the one that gets the shade faster depending on the direction the stadium faces.

Your poor wife.

That's unfortunate. Also hate that it's the same weekend as DFW. Or was it Conroe? Anyway, and most importantly, how can I be 3 places at once?! Edit: Its DFW and Conroe that are on the same weekend. I see now. Still gotta choose between two great contests!

#TRUTH!!!!

Excellent!

That's a bummer. Maybe in the future, if the Waco Regional sticks around, they can book that beautiful stadium. Although I'm sure it ain't cheap, and this IS just a regional after all!

Vewwwy interesting...

Yayyyy....some juicy new topics to discuss in the marching band world. BOA is definitely spicing things up!

You guys are family now.

It was a pretty exciting year.

Whoa, I just read that the 6A cut off is now 2190 and above. That means Leander is only 6A by 10 students!

Concession. Is that a Freudian slip?

I did in November for sure, but the December craziness has taken over my life.

Well, to be fair, he did title the topic as WGI, which refers to Winter Guard International. This competition is exclusively for guard units, so one can assume that anyone competing in WGI is most likely from a large school. Not always the case, but most often is. And you're right. It's expensive, and it takes a hugely committed director and parents, and it's not for everybody. But man it's fun!!!

I'm so glad to see these changes to the schedule for 6A! See y'all in about 9.5 months.

I miss this place.

Wait....there are RULES????!!!!

Oh shut up.

*groan* I swear I don't spend 24/7 on this forum even tho it would appear that way! :/

I hope they continue on their current path and become ONE of the first Leander ISD 6A bands to medal in state.

Around here, they always start new schools with either freshmen only, or freshmen and sophomores only; will they do that there as well?

Ok I just have to say, and I believe that this thread is the perfect place to put this, after seeing just how massive most of the 6A schools are that also have highly successful band programs, I am even more impressed with the success of the Leander ISD bands. Most of the Houston, San Antonio and Dallas area 6A schools are close to twice the size of Leander schools, which means that those schools theoretically should have twice the amount of talented musicians to pull band members from. Yet most of Leander ISD is able to compete on a fairly equal level with the big schools. That makes me even more proud of our district!!

Whoa. Prosper is at 2969 and still 5A? They must have grown FAST!

2349

Yes they are!! Over 4400 at The Woodlands!! No wonder they're discussing adding another high school there.
