hmmm, I think you may be forgetting that there is another small gathering of bands to be held on the 16th. Somewhere in Arcadia I think, anyone else heard of it?

Hey, I didn't forget! But so far nobody has posted the lineup. I only transfer to the events calendar items that have been posted to the discussion group.

Really? Where's the Lincoln HS-Stockton competition line-up? I don't see it anywhere?

I know, I can't find it anywhere. The Lincoln Unified School District and Lincoln High websites are a joke! You can't find anything there. All I know is my niece's high school band will be there. I want to see if they remember how to march after I taught them M&M at their band camp last August.

Really? Which band? Are you going to be there, Dave?

My niece goes to Oakdale High School, just east of Modesto. They are not a highly competitive band, but they still do a good job with the talent the have. The director is a really nice guy, but he is more into jazz band than marching band. But that's OK, he does a good job and the kids have a good time. I spent a week with then during their band camp. I was the first person to teach them some serious parade marching technique. They responded really well during band camp, but I am not sure how much it was reinforced during rehearsals since then. I hope they still remember some of what I taught them, I'll find out this weekend. So the answer is yes, I plan on being there. I'll probably follow the buses to Stockton, about an hours drive from Oakdale.

Ah yes, I'm familiar with Oakdale. They're regulars at Lincoln. They tend to be more active in the Spring (prolly becasue the Spring competitions are Parade, Concert, and Jazz) from what I've seen. Is Mr. Quintanal still directing?
