This festival features a format where all bands
compete in the parade and field portions of the
festival. Indoor percussion and auxiliary
competitions are optional. The bands are put into
equal classes according to school size. In most
cases the classes are no bigger than four bands in
each class. This festival also uses two
non-adjudicating clinicians. The clinicians watch
the performance and then use the next 15 minutes to
share positive aspects of the field performance, and
things to think about for future improvement. There
are overall awards for drum major, percussion,
winds, and auxiliary in addition to 1st, 2nd, 3rd,
and 4th place trophies in each class.
