This Weekend!

Be ready for anything! The scores all around the state are all over the place as you can see if you check out the NYSFBC.org website. Different judging panels have different opinions and different tastes in what they are looking for. Our band is amazing. Last night was the best rehearsal ever. The band is bigger and better than ever. Everyone on the Island sees the tremendous growth in size and quality of the Roslyn Marching Band. Remember the subjectivity of our activity! I cannot stress enough however that the scores can have us at the top or the bottom. If the scores do turn out the way we want them, great, if they don't, then there's always next week. Roslyn and Mineola must have a great showing this weekend to keep us both competetive with the upstate bands in our class. As I told the band this week, we want to win the class. However, getting close to a score of 80 is more important than winning right now. This is a marathon, which ends at the Dome on October 28th. Always........Aim high, be patient.
