Glenn Band News - UIL 5A Marching Success

UIL 5A Area Marching Success!

Glenn Band Fans,

CONGRATULATIONS on our performances at the UIL Area H Marching Contest this past weekend in San Antonio. The Grizzly Band ended with a 1st place finish in prelims and 2nd place finish in finals! These results are a testament to a really hard-working group of students. The band has taken some big steps this season and our performance quality has improved quite a bit since last year as well. We are all excited to know where it will go from here! We have two weeks left in our marching season, and 4 rehearsals until our performance at BOA San Antonio!
