1. Reasonable Entry Fees ($150 for Groups 1-3, $250 for Groups 4-6.. see note #2 for information about group size).

2. All Bands compete in groups based on band size, not school size, and include ALL performing members -- winds, percussion, guard and drum majors. Group sizes are listed as the following:

3. Bands have the option to enter in one of two classifications:

Open Class: Seasoned ensembles that demonstrate expanded skill sets and are adjudicated on a scale supporting intermediate to advanced skills.
A Class: Ensembles who demonstrate a basic to intermediate skill set (may be building/rebuilding their program) and are adjudicated on a scale representing fundamental to intermediate skills.

4. Music, Visual, Effect, Percussion and Color Guard adjudicators to evaluate as many of your performers as possible.

5. Every band staff has the opportunity to speak with the judges at a judges critique session following the contest.

6. World class judging panels representing the very best minds from DCI, WGI and the marching arts.

7. Designations are awarded in each classification for outstanding Music, Overall Effect, Visual, Percussion and Color Guard performance!

8. A scholastic approach to scoring which emphasizes the amazing accomplishments of your students!

I hope that you will take some time to get to know USBands and all of the things that they have to offer, and consider bringing your marching band to the USBands Southwest Missouri Regional in Branson, MO on October 10, 2015.
