Congratulations, Buckley. I hope you continue to do well in the D1 circuit.
It won't be for another while before I do write ups for ENCORE! (provided I don't get a request until I do my Bi-Weekly Reports), so if you'd like to read another one of my works, consider this write up:

Next season, we will travel to various high school stadiums in 4 different states. Each week a different state will be represented, and it's up to you to choose the states. The state which receives the most votes will host our championship event. If you have ideas for what stadiums you want to use, reply to this message in the forum. Go to the link posted below and choose the 4 states.

Texas received the most votes. California, Pennsylvania, and Washington tied for the second most votes. If you have any stadium ideas, please share them; I'm looking for high school stadiums in these states. I'll be working on our tour for as long as I can keep my eyes open. If I don't finish it tonight, I apologize in advance.

Also, I'll update our records soon.

Thanks for a great season 54. Congrats to all medalists and finalists. All of you are fantastic! I'll comment more later.

Thanks for the suggestions. Are all of these high school stadiums? This season we're only visiting high schools with stadiums or stadiums that local high school marching bands use. I found Hershey Park Stadium. I decided not to use it, because I'm not sure if that is a high school.

Okay, after doing a bit of research, I found that J. Birney Crum Stadium is used for high school marching band competitions and high school football. That works for me.
