Our first competition of the season is in the books and the WDMB is currently on top of Group II, Open Class! We are truly pleased with this weeks results and we aren't done the show yet! This week we will be preforming the full program and we should really blast off! Thank you to everyone who went to Collingswood to support us. Your cheers are our fuel and energy. Keep them coming!
This week's list of thank yous...
This week we need to get to work. WD is on top, but the competition is tight. We will be working hard this week to get the finale of the show primed and ready. We will once again have an altered rehearsal schedule due to this week's football bye week. Rehearsals will be Tuesday, Wednesday & Friday.
Saturday we will be traveling up to Brick Memorial High School and we are heading into serious competition. We will be competing with 5 other Group II Open bands! Tickets are available from Mr. Kershaw. All tickets are $10 from Mr. Kershaw, $12 at the gate. Its about an hour and 15 minute drive. We promise it will be worth the trip!

Sunday we will be traveling up to North Jersey to Madison HS. We always like to travel to the other end of our state at least once a season to see our North Jersey competitors. They always treat us Southerners well and we look forward to performing on artificial turf! Tickets will be available once we receive them. The drive is long, about an hour and 45 minutes.

This week's list of thank yous...
- Thank you to all of our pit parents who helped us get to and from everywhere we needed to be. We had some challenges at Collingswood in the dark but our parents really stepped up and lit the way.
- Thank you to the parents who send in snacks for the kids. The brownie/cookies and the smores cookies were BIG hits.
- Thank you to WDMB Alumni Dad, Rich Glass for building a custom rig to hold the bell set on the percussion rack. Amazing talent!
