We had our Regionals yesterday. We played Early Light, Be Thou My Vision, and Pastime: A Salute to Baseball. We got an Excellent/II. Since other regions are still competing this week, we're not sure if we made it to State or not.

We call it MPA in the sunshine state. If you live there, then you know what I'm talking about. I'm playing Down by the salley gardens, canticle of the sun, and
honor roll march.
