Grade 2 Band Contest in Zephyrhills

What do you think - good for the Florida games? My thoughts are that if Charleston Police come down they'll bring their grade 4 and 5 bands as well and possibly the Citadel grade 4 band.

Why not!!!. More bands means better competition. Besides we have proven both in grade 5 and 4 that we can compete right along side of them....shades of Greenville Very Happy

Besdies who wouldn't want to come to Florida in March???? Mr. Green

Grade 2 et al

I like the idea that if we offer Grade 2, we can possibly get all the Charleston bands down.
It would be great to get out-of-state bands of any grade to Z'hills.
If we offered grade 3 would we get Atlanta? St Andrews Presby?
How much extra does each grade cost in travel, judges, and prizes?
I think that possibly the SUSPBA is holding us - and everyone else in Florida, back.
After Greenville, I'm not convinced that this supposedly terrible seasonal dichotomy is that bad after all.

I saw competition results from Hunter Mountain on Dunsire yesteday and they had an open MSR contest which looked like soem grade 2 and 3 bands participated in. That may be what we offer as it could draw some grade 3's down as well. Something to think about...

Grade 2 competition in Zepher

I would definately say yes. It will attract more seasoned bands, morde players, and more people.

The higher the bands the better the reputation for the games. Im all for it
