Anyone know if 6A is coming to SC? All of my sources say that 6A is a done deal.

Any speculations/rumors about where 1A-5A States might be held?

6A is in Spartanburg.
Really wish they could work something out for Columbia. It's the middle of the state and the most fair location to have it. I absolutely LOVE River Bluff's sports complex and it would be perfect for this.

"Byrnes is the worst though" - OMG you're not wrong.
I always work the field gate entry for TOB and getting bands up and down that hill is a day long problem solving dilemma.

We've probably met and talked before and didn't even realize it. Byrnes' hill to the parking isn't terrible. I'd definitely say Mauldin's hill is worse.

I've done two summer DCI tours and the Byrnes walk from the parking lot to the stadium is truly up there as one of the worst IMO. But of course, everything is worse with a marimba.

Weird to not see the TOB on their schedule! It will be “judged” technically. Part of the reason Mr. Moss wants to do it if I understand correctly. It’ll give them a gauge to work from right out of the gate.

If I had my way everything would be at Coastal Carolina or RH district 3, or even Catawba Ridge
