Can you believe it! The Sound of Panther Pride collected another haul of awards
at the Missouri Days Marching Festival in Trenton, MO on October 18. As a mild
day turned to a crisp autumn evening, the band rushed the field in celebration when
they were announced as the sweepstakes winner for most combined points of all bands
in all classes for parade and field performances.
The band competed in class 4A in all events. The Marching Band was awarded first in parade and second in overall field show. The Colorguard took second in indoor auxiliary. The Drumline took second in indoor percussion. The band also received specialty caption trophies in the field show for best marching/maneuvering, best drum major, best auxiliary, and best general effect. Congratulations Panthers, especially the seniors. What a way to end your marching careers at OGHS! |
