lol i just remember when everyone from Momentum used to go to Hooters after we performed... oh well. just a thought. Well I'm leaving to go to Cedar Rapids in like a half hour and then on to Davenport tomorrow. Good luck to everyone who is competing and feel free to come say hi to me!!!!!!!
Steven!!! I miss him so much! He's such a great kid. I wish we didn't have solo & ensemble this weekend because I would so be at this competition. Urgh.
A lot has happened in downtown Davenport since "Great River" 2005. A lot of new fun things have sprung up. If anyone gets the chance to sneak out (which I am not condoning)/ or is allowed to leave the River Center/Adler Theatre for some "Davenport fun" ()... I would suggest visiting the cool sky bridge which is only a few blocks away.
This is a wonderful "mom and pop" video of it... I love the commentary and random people!

I'm so excited for this weekend!
This is the first time that I get to experience all the good things I've heard about Great River and I'm so excited watch everyone perform!
(You, may be looking at this like "wait isn't he from one of the schools that host it?")
I'm only a sophomore and last year we didn't have Great River so I'm pretty pumped!
This weekend should be awesome!
Good luck to everyone. x1000000000000001
"Great River" is a blast to host. I was lucky enough to host Dubuque Wahlert's prep group my freshman year, MC the day time competition my sophomore year, and host the amazing Eisenhower "Elite Energy" my junior year. It was so sad to not have "Great River" my senior year... I still weep at night about it.

That's wonderful! I would highly suggest making the trip to see this historic competition. I say 'historic' because it's not every day you get all six major Cedar Rapids high schools competing under one roof. It's one of the those things were the moon needs to be in alignment with Mercury or something... and 2007 is that year!
Another good thing about "Great River"... they will have Maggie Moo's ice cream for sale! My favorite ice cream!
