The Rolla Marching Bulldog Brigade traveled up I-44 to Sullivan, Missouri to compete in the Screamin’ Eagles 31st Annual Let It Rain Marching Band Festival. The Bulldog Brigade took home first in both the preliminary competition and the finals competition by a whopping 6.03 points. Waynesville High School finished in second, while Washington High School finished in third. Along with Rolla finishing first, the drum majors were awarded with the best drum majors, an award Rolla has never received.  The drum majors are Veronica Isik, Rachel Phelps, and Stephanie Kim, and the band is directed by John Slowensky and Mike Goldschmidt.

The Rolla Marching Bulldog Brigade will be back in action Saturday October 6th, at Washington High School.
