2008 Band Camp Update

Yesterday was the MACBDA social where CYO, Shadow Armada, Sound of Sun Prairie and the Lighthouse Brigade performed their field shows for each other in a relaxed setting. The weather was perfect and everyone enjoyed the performances. All of this was followed by the Racine Band Boosters putting together all you can eat nachos with all of the "fixins"! They really outdid themselves and every marching member also received an official Lighthouse Brigade frisbee to take home as a gift from us (that was a great touch!!). Everyone had a great time socializing and I think lots of friendships of members from other bands were made yesterday. Thanks to all of our awesome booster parents for putting on such a great spread for us!

The show is really coming along and the attitude of the members has been outstanding. They are really working hard to make this show great. We finally have our first competition tomorrow night in Prophetstown, IL and we will be spending the night at the high school. On Friday we will rehearse there before going up to Dakota (for all of you Brigade alumni out there - I will have at least 5 lemonades in your honor!!!!!!).

I'll put up the scores on the "latest brigade news" site as soon as I can.
