Cleveland Critique and Competition

Registration will open in May 2024.

The purpose of the Cleveland Critique and Competition is to provide both a learning experience and a competitive process for each band that participates. As bands are refining and preparing for the marching band season at this time of year the goals are twofold:

1. Offer a critique process whereby directors have an opportunity to meet with an experienced judge and receive suggestions/comments in a face-to-face setting, and
2. Provide a setting whereby registered bands can participate in an NCBA-sanctioned competition and experience the full benefit and experience of a sanctioned competition.

Registration is free until May 31.  Starting June 1 registration is $100 per school.  Registration will open in May 2023.  Checks, made out to CvHS BPA, can be mailed to 65 Glen Rd, PMB 195, Garner, NC 27529.
