BOA Grand Nationals

StaffMisc
Written By Mike Scott

In the 'band' world BOA Grand Nationals fit right in next to the DCI World Championships and WGI weekend in Dayton. It's yet another weekend where a city is temporarily overrun with all things band. While Rhythm X isn't officially visiting Indianapolis during this weekend, we certainly have a lot of staff, alumni, and current members working hard this weekend both teaching and performing! 

We wish the best of luck to all of the amazing performers presenting their final performances this weekend. A special shout out goes to all of the programs related to us here at X. Especially Centerville, Lebanon, and Mason high schools were many X-staff teach and even one of our newest (and youngest) members will be performing!

In other news, keep a look out here at The X Blog for updates on what Rhythm X is up to this season. Maybe there will be some show announcements soon...
