I was kind of disappointed to see there was no article for the Cavalcade of Bands in the Sunday paper, except for a picture of a shiny horn.

In order to see any pictures, one would have had to go to tricity herald.com to see photos. Not everyone has access to a computer.

There was no article saying that local schools placed in the finals. Sports are covered and pictures shown in the paper, why not the music competitions?

There were more than 20 schools from Washington, Oregon, Idaho with wonderful bands and color guard units competing. These kids played their hearts out and performed with all they had to try to win the competition.

I think there could have been pictures of the competition and also results of the same. Chiawana High (from Pasco) band and color guard, for one, has only been competing for two years, and went on to be in the finals. Congratulations to all the Tri-City bands and color guard units. You were great!
