As always, take all "Confirmed" bands with a grain of salt until the official BOA attendance lists are released in the summer.

This is not a confirmation post, just a heads up...
Very strong indication that JFB will attend the Orlando regional for the second year in a row (despite much parent displeasure with this decision).
If the dates for Conway and Orlando are confirmed to be different Saturdays, this will most likely happen.

Because it’s super expensive and doesn’t seem wise given their current financial state. Johnson City would be a smarter choice.

The later in October the better, higher chance of avoiding hurricanes. I'm sure there will be a lot of shifting in calendar dates for local comps. For example, Seminole has Tarpon's home comp listed on the 26th and we all know both Tarpon and Seminole aren't going to miss this event.

Some History on South Forsyth: It's been 8 years since they lasted competed in BOA. After 2016 they received a new director who made a tremendous glow up in the program resulting in their winning of multiple grand champion awards in their local competition, and even received better results than their rival school Forsyth Central. They have come a long way since 2016 and 2020.
For the 2021-2022 they were undefeated the whole season. 2021: Dies Irae
2022: Medusa (my personal favorite)
2023: Imperfect This season they received a new band director. They won Class AAA on Nov. 04 Milton's White Column Invitational (3rd overall (94.38) behind Chattahoochee (94.96) and Cass (97.25)), and third overall (78.90) on 10.21 in MFA Buford MB Classic Finals behind Mill Creek (79.15) and Walton (83.70).
BOA History: 2016 Powder Springs, GA - 17th/18 2009 Atlanta Super Regional - 32nd/42 2008 Atlanta Super Regional - 24th/35 2007 Atlanta Super Regional - 32nd/39 2006 Atlanta Super Regional - 29th/43 2006 St. Petersburg, FL - 13th/22

For example, Seminole has Tarpon's home comp listed on the 26th and we all know both Tarpon and Seminole aren't going to miss this event. That's a bit of a hard ask to move Tarpon's show, especially if they have judges under contract. Said judges might have a conflicting show on another weekend in another part of the country, then screwing over another school's show.

Highly HIGHLY unlikely, but DB has "TBD" written for Oct. 26th on a schedule that was handed out to parents a couple weeks ago. This is actually more likely than St. Louis, but I still think its more likely to be a non BOA local event. Still putting this here just incase.

Thought I'd point out since I posted this, Tarpon's home comp is now officially on the 19th!
