Parade

1st Place Open – Fairfield 92.85
1st Place 5A – Rodriguez 90.95

We had the top 3 scores at the parade!!! It was wonderful that all three bands took the three highest parade scores. This was not an easy task for any of us but all of our kids were amazing. They have to work harder than past students. The hard work of all three directors and friendship between us makes all of our schools a family.

Tournament of Champions, hosted by the Fairfield High Scarlet Brigade, takes place on Saturday, November 16. Following that, the Armijo Super Band will be bringing in Santa Claus to the mall at 3:15 pm.

The band also performed on Monday, November 11 for Fairfield’s Veterans Day Parade.
