			I'm glad that you've already created events and even this chat thread to really get our league going, Aaron.  
 
Funny that I had already joined all of USBEA's events prior to my appointment as one of your BoD members. Its gonna be a bit funny seeing their competitions wondering: "How the hell did ENCORE get in?!"

			Announcement: 
 
Hello directors, thank you for joining. If you just joined us, event availability is limited in our first season; that is typical for the first season off the ground. Please join as many events as you can in order to increase our funds and increase the event availability for future seasons. If anything, join our championship event on Tuesday, May 3rd. Thank you all for your patience and cooperation. Have a great season 51!

			It works for me. I've only been accepted to 1 marching band event that week and it isn't on the 10th or 11th.

			Okay, a new league event has been posted on April 10th ;) 
***************************************************************************** 
 
Also, I've decided to add two more directors to the BoD to complete our 5-man BoD team. If you're interested in helping the league grow and sharing your ideas to keep the league and marching band circuit interesting, please send me a message. 
 
Currently we have the director of MN Tiger Band, cjbuckley1997. Ever since he joined FMA, he has been very active and passionate about the game. In addition, he's had quite a bit of success in division 2 and 3. The next director promoted to the BoD is also a former member of BRAVO! Bands and seems to care much about the success of the league. Please welcome the director of Der Reich, RedEastMovement. 
 
My only requirements to be promoted are that you have experience in order to help others progress in the game and that you plan to be active on FMA. 
 
Cheers!

			Good day, all ladies and gentlemen.  
I will attempt to begin, this weekend, the bi-weekly reports on every division of our fine league, as well as highlighting our achievements in the individual captions. 
 
I love poring over statistics such as these and I hope my reports will be acceptable by everyone. Good luck to all in competition tonight!

			Of course.  
 
I'm starting to get really disappointed this season. I've neglected my rehearsals and now I'm woefully behind our other ENCORE groups in D2. Such is the struggle of FMA :/ 
 
How's everyone else doing?
