Confirmed: Carlisle, OH Possible: Corona del Sol, AZ (they have a tentative out of state trip planned for 11/11-11/14, with a hotel stay and theme park visit (Cedar Point?)) Bellbrook and Ben Davis both look to be out. Kings Island is only about 2 hours from Indianapolis, Cedar Point is 4.5

Bellbrook and Ben Davis both look to be out. Kings Island is only about 2 hours from Indianapolis, Cedar Point is 4.5 Come to think of it...both will be closed for the season by these dates. Even their Halloween events end the first weekend in November.

Possible: Corona del Sol, AZ (they have a tentative out of state trip planned for 11/11-11/14, with a hotel stay and theme park visit (Cedar Point?)) Could well be a trip to Disneyland. That involves all of the three criteria - out of state, hotel stay, theme park visit. There are three WBA Regional Championship events that weekend.

I would guess that they’re going to a WBA Championship.

I would guess that they’re going to a WBA Championship. As excited as I was about the possibility of an Arizona band attending (finally?), I’ve removed them from the rumored list.

The last time an Arizona band attended Grand Nationals (which may have been the first ever appearance by an Arizona band) was in 1986; Coronado HS from Scottsdale, AZ. They finished 17th in Prelims (no semi finals back then). Yes it would be something to see an Arizona band return to Grand Nationals; 35 years is a long time. At least it looks like the state of Nevada is finally sending a band to Grand Nationals.

If I may, the list of bands attending and those rumored to be attended is insane. There are an awful lot of very strong bands on that roster. And I thought the list of bands in attendance in 2019 was crazy.

They announced it on their social media platforms and all, several times, with much zeal and excitement!

Not to be confused with William Henry Harrison H.S., OH oh yes because we were definitely getting those two confused. 😉 Oh and don’t forget about Tecumseh and his brother Tenskwatawa.

A lot of schools named for a guy who died after 31 days in office. For those who don't know, read up on Tecumseh and the curse of Tippecanoe. It is said that Ronald Reagan broke the curse. It seems we have a Texas school/band named after our 40th president. Yes I have a lot other history tidbits that fill my brain, not just BOA.
