I'm excited for this one! I won't be able to stay for finals, but I really want to see Westwood and LeMars before they're done for this year. I'm also looking forward to the Bishop Heelan groups.
Oh and, of course, I get to see Ethan Price
Hinton was one of our favorite competitions last year. Our groups were disappointed we are unable to attend again this year- but it is St. Patricks Day.... and you don't leave Emmetsburg on St. Patricks Day. Good luck to everyone-you will have a great time!!!
Not quite as deep as last year. Only the usuals returning. That being said, the top three should be very, very close. LeMars VS Westwood is going to be a great battle after last years turnouts, and Carroll could make a case for the top two, also.
My predictions on finalists:
Westwood
LeMars
Carroll
Sioux Center
Lawton Bronson
Sioux City East 'New Sound'
Who will be attending the Hinton Soundsational Invitational in Hinton, Iowa?
Last years Grand Champion and First Runner Up will be returning. Who else?
Last years results:
Grand Champion: Westwood "Rebelaires"
1st RU: Le Mars "Crimson & Black"
2nd RU: Center Point Urbana "Summit Street Singers"
3rd RU: Carroll "Swingsations"
4th RU: Emmetsburg "High Voltage"
5th RU: Lawton "Momentum"
