The Stamford Holiday Balloon Parade of 2007!  The Black Knigts were there to show their stuff and have some fun.

It was a great day.  A chance to get together with friends from the Marching Band season one last time to enjoy and celebrate the fine season just concluded.

Photos are available for those who may have missed it.  Check back for more soon as Winter programs and events are posted.

Originally known as Armistice day and dedicated to the Veterans of World War I, Veteran's day is now a day set aside as "A celebration to honor America's veterans for their patriotism, love of country, and willingness to serve and sacrifice for the common good."

More information about Veteran's Day can be found on the Veteran's Affairs website.

In their final competition of the band season the Black Knights scored their biggest victory of the season - taking the MAC Class III Championships!  Stamford also took the caption awards for Outstanding Marching, Outstanding Music, Outstanding General Effect, and Outstanding Percussion.

The hard work of students combined with skilled instruction from the band staff paid off.  Fans of the Black Knights watched season-long as our show continued to improve.  The results speak for themselves. 

A day that started with a threat of very high winds ends in success for the Black Knights Marching Band. In their final regular season performance the Black Knights scored 1st place in Class III competition. They also took away the caption awards for Outstanding General Effect, Outstanding Marching, Outstanding Percussion, and Outstanding Music.

In the first ever combined Musical Arts Conference and Tournament of Bands competition the Stamford High Black Knights came out on top with a 1st place performance in class III as well as the award for best percussion.

Their energetic performance was the difference in a close class III matchup. With only two weeks to go in the season, the Black Knights will next face off against their competition at Norwalk where they will be matched up against most of the bands they will be seeing at finals as well as the Westhill Vikings marching band.

Congratulations to Stamford High. A fine performance resulted in 1st place for class III as well as caption awards for Music, Marching, and General Effect.

Pictures are available. Scores are posted on the MAC website. With a week off from competition, we'll see you again at Ramsey High School on October 27th.
