Marching Band Summer Update

Hello all;

I hope your summer rehearsals/camps are going well! Here is a link to the next installment of Marching Band Corner.  Visual Caption Head Matt Stevens gives a detailed breakdown of the terminology and criteria on new Visual sheets. Check it out, it's great!


Other updates:

• Copyright deadline is August 9th. If your program has not cleared copyright verification after that date, all of your event registrations will be suspended
• You can enter song titles and upload copyright info by accessing your band profile on the OMEA website
• If you are a new director, or at a new school, please set up an account in Competition Suite with your current band, and/or request access to your new group if they already have an account.  You do not need to register for any events, that will happen automatically.
• IF YOU WERE ACCEPTED INTO the Buckeye Invitational, but are still registered for another event the same day, please let me know so I can delete your registration/refund your fee
• IF YOU WERE NOT ACCEPTED INTO the Buckeye Invitational and would like to transfer that registration time stamp to another event (or need a refund), please contact me ASAP

Good luck with the rest of your summer rehearsals.  Please contact me if you have any questions.
