They competed against other students from Richmond, Chesterfield, Henrico, Stafford, and Fredericksburg.

Band teacher Nicholas Merillat proudly announces that Charlie Hill (’26 – Hanover) and Abe Stubblefield (’26 – Richmond) each earned one of four available spots for the Central Virginia region. They are also eligible for All-Virginia Band and Orchestra auditions in the spring.
