The Marching Warriors Earn "Best Crowd Appeal" at the ISU Marching Band Championships! #207Now #marchingband #marchingwarriors @mainewestband @mainewestfab

 

This past Saturday, the Maine West Marching Warriors competed for the first time in the prestigious Illinois State University Marching Band Championships! The Illinois State Marching Band Championships is the state’s premiere invitational event hosting forty-two high school marching bands in preliminary and finals competition. Participating bands are divided into the six classifications determined by the Illinois High School Association school enrollment. Bands are evaluated by the leading clinicians in music education and enjoy the thrill of performing to packed crowds at the incredible Hancock Stadium on the campus of Illinois State University.

We are so very proud to announce that the Marching Warriors earned "Best Crowd Appeal" in their class for this year's show, "Redemption For an Outlaw!" Congratulations to all members of the Marching Warriors, and their dedicated directors and staff!
