Henry Winston Stadium – Friendswood, TX

Please come and support the band and encourage any other friends/family to come as it is always more enjoyable for the students to perform at a contest with a large cheering section made up of  family and friends.   Family and friends can show their support by cheering louder than any other band’s supporters.  We should hear an especially loud cheer both when they announce our band at the beginning of our performance and at the conclusion of our performance.  Applause is also needed after solos, section features, and big musical or visual moments.  This is not like concert season.  A lot of applause is highly encouraged.

If this will be your first time to attend an event at Henry Winston Stadium in Friendswood, allow yourself plenty of time to get parked and into the stadium.  Traffic flow can be very congested and parking is extremely limited.  With buses, trucks, and cars traveling in and out of the area all day, there will be delays.
