Sure about this? The SC Band Link site shows 10/14 as Blythewood's home show. Yes, it's the town of Blythewood (including Ridge View). Blythewood isn't co-hosting this year, just RV. Pretty sure this is St. James High School from Murrells Inlet, SC not too far from Myrtle Beach. www.stjamesbands.com/calendar.htmlAhh good to know.

I'm not sure if/when they did BOA in the past but I would have loved to see them give it a shot in the 2000's. They did compete in the 2000s and they were absolutely huge and fantastic back then: St. Peterburg Regional (2007) 12th place (prelims)St. Petersburg Regional (2006) 7th place (finals)
St. Peterburg Regional (2005) *6th place (finals)*St. Petersburg Regional (2004) 9th place (finals)Atlanta Super Regional (2003) 16th place (prelims)Daytona Regional (2002) 11th place (prelims)St. Louis Regional (2001) 12th place (prelims)Johnson City Regional (2000) 11th place (prelims)

At the moment MFA has accidentally copy-pasted Louisville onto the page for this regional. Glad I can rely on my fellow band nerds to find the REAL lineup!

They've only got LCI(host), BOA Conway and 5A listed. I thought for sure they'd have more comps planned.

Fort Mill avoiding local competition like the plague 🙄
But I am happy with the turnout of this event! I hope BOA likes the venue because it is super convenient for me 😆

Agreed, I think originally it was, or at least should of been, Traveler's but who knows lol and it's not just the high school but the city too

ALSO.... there's no Apostrophe in Travelers. It's just Travelers Rest Hey, we all make mistakes, including the people that give schools grammatically incorrect names. The school name is the town name plus the words high school, so it's on the town founders. Maybe the name is based on "this is where travelers rest" since it was founded as a supply station for the difficult wagon trek into the Blue Ridge Mountains making it completely correct.

Exactly two months until this contest! It's time for very early predictions. Rather than going through the headache of trying to guess placements, I'm making the predictions tier-based and in alphabetical order.
I am so thrilled BOA was able to secure a Carolina area regional again this season! This is shaping up to be a really solid show.
This show is Wando’s to lose, and they won’t. I could see Nation Ford pulling an upset for a medal. While I’m fairly confident about the top 8 or 9 bands, it all kind of goes out the window from there. I’m not too familiar with the new faces to the BOA scene. I watched YouTube videos of last year when I could find them and looked at local show recaps, and tried to translate that to BOA, and I know that doesn’t always work! I’m confident I have several groups in the bottom half in the wrong spots.
I’m thinking all of the class championships will stay in South Carolina, unless Green Level can overtake Nation Ford!
Congratulations! (1): Wando H.S., SC ---------- Medalist Contenders (2-3): Catawba Ridge H.S., SC James F. Byrnes H.S., SC ---------- Finalist Locks (4-7): Green Level H.S., NC Nation Ford H.S., SC ---------- Clover H.S., SC Stratford H.S., SC ---------- Likely Finalists (8-10): Blythewood H.S., SC Carteret Collective Sound, NC Lakeside H.S., GA ---------- Finalist Bubble (11-13): Apex Friendship H.S., NC Corinth-Holders H.S., NC Travelers Rest H.S., SC ---------- Outer Bubble (14-16): Carolina Forest H.S., NC Jack Britt H.S., NC North Myrtle Beach H.S., SC ---------- Everyone Else (17-22): Cape Fear H.S., NC Northwestern H.S., SC St. James H.S., SC ---------- Socastee H.S., SC South Brunswick H.S., NC South Johnston H.S., NC
A: St. James H.S., SC AA: Catawba Ridge H.S., SC AAA: Nation Ford H.S., SC AAAA: Wando H.S., SC

Despite a director change I think Byrnes will be a solid 2nd place and has the ability to steal a caption from Wando, but I agree Wando should be the clear winner over Byrnes as they have been for 10 years now. I think Clover also has the ability to push into the Catawba Ridge / Nafo realm and perhaps even beat them both. But that could come down to panel and show design - they have had more success at the state level than BOA much like Summerville.
