Knight Music 2009 is now successfully concluded.  We have pictures and video of the event! Scores are posted on the MAC Website.

Ten marching bands from New York and Connecticut competed in the 10th annual Knight Music marching band competition. The weather sounded scary all week, but when the day came we had decent weather with even a peek of sun in the middle (if you blinked you missed it!).  But with 10 great bands performing, and die-hard fans there to watch them, it turned out to be a great show after all.  There were some awesome performances at this 2/3rd point of the season.  Shows are really coming together with final polish and precision.

We hope those of you who braved the weather enjoyed the great show, great food, and the hospitality of our school and band parents organization.

Very important that all parents attend - Knight Music requires all parents to volunteer to ensure success.

Please read the following thank you message from the SHSBPAI presidents...
