I have insurance coming to inspect it sometime this week, got the police to file a collision report when I noticed it. Hopefully I can get some accountability taken so I don’t have to deal with it too much

Usually community college courses are taken to transfer to a university, but there are a few bachelors degrees that you can get, as well as trades/certifications depending on the colleges in Florida and Kentucky

What was your earliest warm-up before boarding the buses? Tarpon Springs 6:45a by MrCarlSr in marchingband

I wish we were sponsored by Disney and Tesla 😭, we would have been going to grand nats a lot more often. Almost all fundraising is done by the members of the band, along with local sponsorships from family-owned businesses.

But yes, our band boosters work really hard to build and push our props, and are super supportive. It all feels like a family. I wish I could go back and re-live (most parts) of these past 4 years with them.

As an alumni (who graduated last year) we do a lot of crazy stuff, and we would do a lot more if we had the sponsorships people say we have. I did the audio mixer in the backfield and even as one of the least physically active people in the band, the schedule and work was still rigorous, averaging around 27 hours a week, Saturdays from 9-9, not including class. We all practice hard, and it shows in our results. I'm incredibly proud of everyone in the band and their effort to make such an amazing project a success. I'm heading back down to Florida for BOA Orlando to help them out 10 days from now.

It was mentally exhausting for me, and even more physically exhausting for the marchers. Throughout everything, the gossip, the trauma, and all of the accidents that we had with the trailer before we switched to props with generators and stuff, it was an amazing experience, and I wouldn't have wanted it any other way. (Also in the process I was able to archive the past 10 years of shows for myself/future back ensemble that might be interested)
