CONGRATULATIONS WDMB!
2nd PLACE & BEST MUSIC at the 2025 SJ Region I Championships!
We are so proud of what this group is accomplishing. They are truly elite performers. Our score of 92.30 makes the WDMB the 6th highest score out of the 124 bands across all TOB Regional Championships. That is amazing! Congratulations to WDMB Senior Melody Parisi on receiving a $500 TOB Region 1 Scholarship.
Thank you to everyone who came out to support us in the stands and on the field. Steady, strong winds made for a less than optimal performance situation, but our amazing students, staff and volunteers helped us steady our props and perform like there was no wind at all.
Looking forward, we are down to our final 3 weeks of competitions. This week we head into the TOB NJ State Championships. Next week we roll into Hershey, Pennsylvania for the TOB Atlantic Coast Championships (ACCs). We will complete our season in Metlife Stadium for the USBands Open Class Championships.
This week we have another opportunity to go head to head with several great competitors. We are working hard to close the gaps and make our MASQUERADE program as strong as possible. Every rehearsal is critical as we fine tune and dial in the final details of our show. Thank you for making sure your child is on time and prepared for every event.
REMAINING FOOTBALL SCHEDULE
Our Football team qualified for their playoffs! The 1st round will take place on THURSDAY, OCTOBER 30th or FRIDAY, OCTOBER 31st. We will not know officially until next Sunday or Monday. This will be a home game event. All members will be required to attend as we support our team and perform at Halftime.
NJ STATES AT BARNEGAT HIGH SCHOOL
We know this is a hike, but we will make it worth it.
General Spectator Parking will take place at the Barnegat High School Main Parking Lot
180 Bengal Blvd. Barnegat, NJ. 08005)
Tickets are only available at the gate: $15 Adults - $10, Students & Senior Citizens
Normally at States students would have some time to hit the concession stand for food. Due to our late performance time, we will not be able to do that. All students are asked to pack a meal. Students will be fed prior to departure, but they will certainly work up an appetitie after our performance. Thank you to everyone who has been providing bus snacks for the kids.
