The Tournament of Bands 2010 season opens on Saturday, September 11 - with six Preview/Clinic shows scheduled throughout the nine-state association. Bands in chapters 1-4-6-8-11-13 will benefit from the afternoon clinics with select NJA caption heads, facilitators, and experienced adjudicators as they work together with students and staff previewing the 2010 productions. Band Directors, designers, and staff will meet and discuss planning with both music and visual clinicians, while students will have the opportunity to meet face-to-face with judges who are familiar, and recognized, for their Individual Analysis Music and/or Visual information and advice.

Afternoon music and visual reviews will lead up to an evening of Tournament competition. With forty bands set to open the year everyone is looking forward to another exciting, and educational, Tournament season. Bands have been preparing for their 2010 TOB shows since last sping and are anxious to "strut their stuff" for the new season.

As bands continue into weekend two, with nine shows and ninety bands, registration continues using the on-line link for Championships and 2010 Program Information. TOB is pleased to return to Hershey Stadium on October 31 and November 7 for the annual TOB Atlantic Coast Championships, and the all-new TOB A Class Championships.
