• It is a great way to start out the day by listening to all of the bands from throughout the area marching down Groton's Main Street. I loved listening to them all. NSU did a very good job performing just before the awards ceremony.
• After it was all over, I was standing in line to get some goodies and some members from Britton were also in line. They were talking about the candy cookie lady. This lady makes a lot of cookies before every band trip and they really love getting these cookies.  They say the cookies are to die for and they even gave me one. What a great team member!
