PSHSMom Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 The weather really doesn't look good for Saturday. Chance of rain 100% with heavy rains possible, then thunderstorms in the evening. Isn't looking too promising! Quote

PSHSMom Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 We just got the same message from the Plano director that it was cancelled Probably makes the best sense, Saturday looks terrible! But disappointed too! Now I'm thinking I might have to make a trip to San Antonio to BOA, I will have to see if my son at A&M will meet me there! Such a long drive though. Quote
pvhn Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 Yes duncanville has been officially been cancelled. As a participant I was looking forward to this contest to see how we would place compared to all the big players of the area ( Marcus, Hebron, Keller, etc) http://www.duncanvilleisd.org/Page/279 Quote
FloMoParent Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 It is a shame that the event was cancelled, but in the end I think it was the best. Rain and marching bands don't mix Quote
azn Posted October 26, 2015 Posted October 26, 2015 Although, there was barely any rain in the metroplex on Saturday so cancelling it might had been a mistake? unless Duncanville was in the area where it was going to get hit with rain on saturday... Quote

It's better to cancel a contest and have nothing happen than to not cancel a contest and have an episode that resembles the events of the 2002 UIL State Marching Contest. Quote
