We went to ours already, it was in Atlanta we went from the 11-15. Our awards were given at Sixflags: Skies over Georgia. Theme parks are popular.

This past fall, our university marching band took a long weekend in Guelph and Montreal, Canada. We played at another college's homecoming, and at a professional football game.

Next fall, over Thanksgiving, our trip is to Beijing. A lot of us aren't going, though, because it's super expensive and the plane flight is crazy long (I get plane sick).

next spring my band is going to go to Florida to march in Disney Land. i can't wait. if it's anything like last time when we went it will be so much fun!

we went to virginia beach right before spring break, march 28thish. we left thursday morning and came back sunday mid-day. it was pretty freaking amazing. last year was atlanta... next year may be orlando, its not decided yet. apparnetly were allowed to go to canada agian now, but itl be harder cause everyone has to have passports even under 18, which i guess they didnt used to? i dunno.

Ours was March 30-31. We went to Magic Kingdom and Epcot in Orlando, Fla. It was so much fun, and marching in Disney's Main Street Parade was the most amazing experience I've ever had in my entire life. I had so much fun on the trip and I can't wait until next year's trip.

We went to New York City for St. Patty's Day. We were there for the weekend and had tons of fun, even though it was really cold. Next year, I think we're going to Florida. Hopefully, it won't sleet there too.

Mine is may 25-27. We're going to San Francisco and who knows what we'll be doing up there. I'm excited though! and next fall the marching band is going to Fiesta Bowl in Phoenix, AZ so that was great last year so it'll be fun as fun i hope!

Ours is from May 24th - 28th. We're going to Disneyland! I'm so excited! We also had a trip just with the jazz band back in February - our annual trip to the Lionel Hampton jazz festival in Idaho. It was like the 23rd - 25th, I think.

Our Band trip is next week, we're going to Musicfest Canada in Richmond! Thats not far from where we are, but we're still staying there so we can catch all the evening concerts and stuff. Can't wait, its been 5 years since we were there. I only wish our band was a little better for showing off at a national level, we're only class 400, but my year (the seniors) have been able to play at a class 500 level easily, so we're a bit below our standards for the juniors and upperclassmen.

This isn't for a while, but in March 2008 my band is going to Ireland to perform in Dublin's St Patrick's Day parade. Oh the awesomeness...

^ We might be doing that too! Our BD had been talking about it for a few years, so hopefully we really will.
