I agree. I was highly impressed with Kennedy's line-up last year. Waconia, Ankeny, Xavier, Sioux Falls Washington, and Iowa City High really put on one heck of a show, and if Great River wasn't the same day this year... I would be sitting in the Kennedy High School gym February 18th watching the great groups again.
Rock on Kennedy!
amen to that! weeeee! yay for the kennedy competition! i cant wait!

Im going to disagree, the groups I watched with the exception of maybe one or two, I thought they were all very good. I was escpecially impressed with Xavier, and SF wash, as well as waconia, their ability to maintain that amount of energy throughout their show was incredible.

I Admit, i wasnt at the competition. I am basing what i say off of the results throughout the entire season, not jsut at one comp.

In all honesty, i think the only really tough group there last year was ankeny. Just telling the truth, but looking at most of those groups records, they werent all that good. I'm not saying that this years comp wont be good, just saying what i saw from last year.

well i think it shall be interesting to see what your group thinks of this competition. i have liked it in the past years, with really great shows to see. But i seem to remember you saying that it was not a strong comp. I must conclude that some of the groups that competed last year were quite tough to beat. but i think you guys will like it. its a fun competition.

I am pretty sure Cedar Rapids Xavier is going... bout 95% sure... I know we are going to Onalaska, Mo Sho, Sioux City, Urbandale, and I want to say Kennedy too
Maybe we can show these guys last year wasn't a fluke... maybe not -- who knows??
We can only give it our best shot and hope the judges like what we do

See you on February 18th!

Actually Classic connection doesn't know their comps for sure yet because they haven't been released yet. I hope we go back to Kennedy I had a lot of fun last year and I know we'd have an amazing time this coming year!
I'd like to second that. I wasn't ever sure if there were videos available from Kennedy, but if there are, I really want one of finals (and daytime, too). I'd really appreciate any help. Thanks!

I can remember they had them... I think... lol... but I think they were pricey.
I was wondering if anyone has the DVD of last years FINALS at Cedar Rapids Kennedy? If so... I would love to get a copy. Contact me through PM if anyone is interested.
