2019 BOA Austin
DRbandDAD replied to LeanderMomma's topic in Past Contests, Events, and Festivals Archive
Believe me ma'am, we are great fund raisers here in Del Rio,TX as well, the only difference is that our fund raising only yield between one to two thousand a pop. If I recall correctly on one of the topics in this forum, one of the Austin schools made $40k on one fund raiser alone. You shouldn't feel resentful about my comment, if you do, I apologize. It is the truth though.... P.S. I am a fan of the Dripping Springs program as well! -

Hmmm, I don't believe I predicted a first place for them at BOA midland. 6th place at a BOA event with ZERO props is not bad... my opinion. Maybe I should be grateful for Del Rio being included... Thanks. -

Keep an eye out for Del Rio High School Marching Band this year.....These kids are hungry and they want it! Very talented and motivated group of kids -
I do agree that parental and community support is key. I believe that every year each band is successful in their own way as band directors and students strive to accomplish goals they set at the beginning of the year. However, funding does make a difference in the outcome of top bands in the state of Texas. 100% my opinion.
