The Central Lee High School Marching Hawks wrapped up their competition season on a rainy Saturday, October 18th — and what a day it was!
In the morning, the Hawks performed at the IHSMA State Marching Festival at Brady Street Stadium in Davenport, earning a Division I Superior Rating!
Later that day, the band traveled to the Quincy High School Octoberfest Field Marching Show, where they powered through two lightning delays and a wet warm-up to deliver another outstanding performance. The Hawks proudly brought home:
Outstanding Color Guard Award (Class 2A)
3rd Place Overall (Class 2A)
Outstanding Iowa School Award
The students have worked incredibly hard this season preparing an entertaining and crowd-pleasing show. The band would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to all the parents who supported us throughout the season — those who drove students to and from rehearsals, moved equipment at competitions, chaperoned, hemmed uniforms, cleaned shoes, and helped in countless other ways.
The band also would like to recognize our transportation department for ensuring the band’s safe travels to and from every performance. Your teamwork and dedication made it all possible!
Congratulations to the Marching Hawks on an outstanding season filled with perseverance, pride, and passion!
