I'm preeeeeeetty sure Camdenton will be here once again, but I've also gotten a total of 10 hours of sleep all week so I could be misremembering.
I would love to see this regional-ish contest pull some groups from the surrounding states now that it's under BOA's wing. Particularly would love to see the Springfield and Columbia area MO bands take a shot at it, particularly the ones that don't stray too far away from home. I can see bands like Hickman, Ozark, Rock Bridge, and Nixa doing well here. Would also love to see some of the smaller, more northern TX bands as well as KS groups. This would be a good one for the Overland Park bands, like the Blue Valley district.

I've heard that Jenks wont be attending this year. Wonder how that will shake up the race for first?

If this show still happens, hopefully they can bring in a good number of of-state groups like in years past. Unfortunately, there are just too many other contests happening on the same day and in the same region for this to attract a large number of participants. There are notable contests hosted by Bixby, Mustang, and Bentonville(AR) on 10/7, and plenty in same area the weekend before and after. I know the BOA affiliate status aims to help with the enrollment, but it will take a few years, if it helps all.

I am glad so many programs have contests in the state (for financial help), but sometimes I wish there were less which would help increase enrollment at the ones that last. But it seems more contests get added each year lol.

What a stacked competition! Is there another schedule with a dozen or so more groups that you're seeing? Because this honestly feels extremely lackluster

Gonna throw some predictions in! Pretty bummed with the attendance at this event (doing my best to use clear language since Allohak thinks Okie's can't do sarcasm LOL), but hoping to make the most of it! Gone are the days of this being a big contest I fear. It also pretty much is the nail in the coffin for an Oklahoma Regional, although I still think that would have far better attendance. It'll be nice to see how Southmoore holds up here. Gonna give my best shot at predicting scores as well per request! 1. Southmoore H.S., OK - 80.65 2. Aubrey H.S., TX - 75.90 3. Tahlequah H.S., OK - 74.95 4. Whitesboro H.S., TX - 74.90 5. Sallisaw H.S., OK - 73.50 6. Muskogee H.S., OK - 70.00 7. Oklahoma Union H.S., OK - 69.35 M/V/GE - Southmoore H.S, OK It'll also be nice to see people's thoughts on BA. I think they might have uniforms and everything in for this competition as I saw they had a dress reheasal last night.

Go Southmoore! I was expecting them to easily win, but even that margin is pretty impressive. Bodes well for the rest of their season for sure
