2011 Ardrey Kell HS Mighty Knight Invitational
Thank you everyone for making the 2011 AK Invitational a huge success!!!
Hope to see you all back next year!
Dear Director of Bands,
You are cordially invited to participate in our 3rd annual Mighty Knight Invitational. This event will take place on Saturday, October 29, 2011 in the brand new synthetic turf field stadium on the campus of Ardrey Kell High School. Ardrey Kell HS is conveniently located in Southern Charlotte, just minutes away from I-485, I-85, and I-77.
This will be our 4th year running a show at Ardrey Kell, and we have quickly established our show as a highly professionally run event. We have hosted many bands over the first two years and the show has been a great success!!!
The Mighty Knight Invitational will be an early day show finishing somewhere around 4:00pm, so bands will be able to “double-up” and attend an evening show as well if they so wish.
This year, we will be a NCBA state sanctioned show and will use the state sheets. I personally hand pick each adjudicator and I am confident that they will provide valuable comments for both you and your students, as they possess many years of adjudicator experience in numerous states including FL, GA, NC, and SC. We will also hold a post-competition critique where you and your staff can meet with the judges and discuss their reactions to your performance in person.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any additional questions or if there is anything that I can do to help make your marching season successful.
Sincerely,
Larry Shane
