Congratulations Valencia, on your win. But can SCV news,not report for all schools??? I seem to remember GVHS doing the same a while back and there was,no mention of them having been successful that year…… please SCV News report on all our school Marching Bands at SCSBOA Championships when they compete weather they placed 1st or 7th it’s a,great accomplishment for our 6 marching bands to even go too championships in the first place. These kids,and schools should all be recognized far more than they are.
I would like to congratulate all of the marching bands that competed in championships this past weekend. Also, just to let you know, SCV news is not responsible for collecting this information, each individual band booster organization is responsible for releasing information to the press.

Congrats to West Ranch for medaling three of the past four years, one gold and two silver, and for winning the percussion caption award the last four years! Congrats to all our bands four making it to Championships, no other district can say that.
Way to go Vikings
