I was able to tag along the the UIL band benchmark with Zeke and the rest of the Cougar band.
They were given some pointers to work on by the judges, and a few weeks later they attended the real Band University Interscholastic League. Each year about half a million middle, junior high and high school students participate in ten UIL music events.
The Cougar Band walked away with a superior rating for their concert performance, and an excellent rating for sight reading. You can tell they were feeling pretty proud about their accomplishments.

The hardware they brought home:
The competition was super early. After the kids returned to school, one of the moms and I helped serve them breakfast.
We treated them to some cute cookies.
My boy loves his band community.
