On October 2nd, the Cub Band competed in the Vista Ridge Marching Contest and was awarded third place among the 5A bands who competed.  The band’s score in preliminaries placed it in the top ten of all 23 bands, regardless of school size, and earned a spot in the finals where it finished ninth place overall.

The Cub Band then performed in the Katy Marching Festival on Saturday, along with 29 other marching bands from the Houston area.  The band advanced to the finals for the first time in its history since the introduction of the new prelims/finals format used in this festival.  Brenham placed ninth overall in its finals run against bands who were top ten prelims scorers, regardless of school size.  Bands from schools in 4A, 5A and 6A competed in the festival.

The band will present its competition show, “First Train Home”, on Friday at Cub Stadium between 4:20 and 4:30 p.m.  The performance is free.

The band’s next competition will be the UIL Regional Contest on Wednesday, October 20th at 11:30 a.m. at Waller ISD Stadium.
