A special thanks to the Avon HS winter guard for their help in prelims at Nashville, and to the Centerville HS winter guard for their help in finals! Also, thanks to the guys from Pope HS for their help in BOTH prelims and finals! Congratulations to all 3 groups on their outstanding performances in Nashville!

Congratulations to all competing units at the Indianapolis regional this past weekend. It seems as though the Midwest will make a strong showing in weeks to come.

I would also like to congratulate the members and staff of the Pride of Cincinnati for their dedication and perseverance which showed this past weekend in Indianapolis. It's not very often you see audience members with tears in their eyes coming out of the stands at the first regional.

Keep up the good work!

You can find the Pride of Cincinnati in the next month at the Nashville regional, Centerville High show, and the Las Vegas regional.
