Morning Clinic Format and Afternoon/Evening Contest
September 19, 2009
The Showcase: Millbrook High School’s Fifth Annual Pre-Festival Showcase will offer two venues, a morning clinic exhibition and an afternoon/early evening contest. The clinic exhibition will provide an opportunity for your band to be critiqued without the pressure of competition. The contest will allow you to have your show evaluated early in the season and still enjoy the rewards of competition. Our goal is to provide an event that will give you several features:
Clinic Format: Morning exhibition, adjudicators/clinicians meeting with students and directors on the field following the performance, critique using VBODA State Marching Festival forms, guard and percussion clinicians, and more. Clinicians will critique by caption.
Contest Format: Caption judging, two in each class (Music, Marching,
and GE) based on VBODA criteria, use of state marching festival guidelines,
different set of judges (you may want to participate in clinic and contest),
awards, and more.
