All-Region Results

Congratulations to the following FIVE Bulldog Band members that earned a spot in the All-Region Band! Our region consists of Arlington ISD, Mansfield ISD, and Birdville ISD. This is the highest achievement an individual junior high musician can earn. The All-Region bands will have their clinic and concert on Saturday, December 6th at the Willie Pigg Auditorium in Mansfield. BRAVO!

Ben F, Clarinet - 17th chair Symphonic Band (17th chair overall)
Darcy G, Clarinet - 11th chair Concert Band (29th chair overall)
Ryan F, Clarinet - Alternate (37th chair overall)

Luke B, Trumpet - 10th chair Symphonic Band (10th chair overall)
Alejandro C, Trumpet - 3rd chair Concert Band (15th chair overall)

I am so proud of all of our Boles Band members that completed the All-Region audition process. It takes guts to put yourself out there in an audition like this. We are ALL better musicians now, at the end of the process, than we were at the beginning of the process.

I will post full results from Saturday outside the band hall on Monday morning.
