St. Louis
We have an invitation to be the exhibition band at the Bands of America  Super Regionals in St. Louis on October 21st.  We are just beginning to plan the details of this trip.  At this point we don't know when we will leave or when we will return.  This is a major performance so please don't schedule anything that would interfere with this weekend. 

Other
Please hold September 22. 

We are requesting an NFL halftime.  The NFL schedule is announced in April so we won't know until after that time.  If we get an NFL halftime it could be on and given Sunday during the fall.  Please be flexible as we WILL accept any reasonable NFL invitation.
