Bands of America Super Regional - On Nov 1st, the Raider Band was contacted by Bands of America and asked to compete in the Super Regional competition at the Alamodome just 2 days later!  After a scramble to arrange the logistics for this short notice trip to the Alamodome on Nov 3rd, the Raider Band opened the BOA competition as the 1st band to perform.  While not scoring well with the BOA judges, they performed well and gained some valuable experience inside the cavernous Alamodome prior to competing there for State on Nov 7th.

STATE! - The Raider Band drew the 1st band to perform (8 am).   The early performance was solid, but at the end of day the judges listed the Raider Band in 29th position.  Nevertheless, being 29th out of 236 bands (5A) in Texas is a truly great accomplishment.  Way to go Raider Band!
