This seasonal blog shares information & photos about the Marching Charger Band of Northwood High School in Pittsboro, NC. Occasionaly we will share information unrelated to Marching Band, but it will always be something associated with the instrumental music programs at Northwood High School. Thank you to all of our students, alumni, parents and of course our amazing Band Director, Mr. Eugene Cottrell, for the many wonderful years of memories that we are able to share through this blog.

Northwood Defends its "AA Championship" @ Western Alamance Competition
The Northwood Marching Chargers took their business seriously today at the Central North Carolina Band Festival. In the Single A and Double A competition, Northwood was the only band to achieve the "Superior" status. With a rating of 90.5, Northwood received the 1st place award in every caption. In addition, the Chargers were named "Band of the Day" Class A/Class AA.
The crowd was very supportive of the young Northwood Marching Chargers as they took to the field. Northwood responded with a marvelous show. It was an amazing performance for a band who was only in their 2nd competition. Every one of our members should be very proud of their performance and achievements. It is exciting to see the chargers "do their thing".
Congratulations on a great day.
Several photos taken today are posted in this blog.
Our next competition will be next Saturday in Moore County. A detailed schedule of the competition will be announced early next week.
Go Chargers!!!

Congratulations to the Marching Chargers and Mr. Cottrell! (And how can I forget all those behind-the-scenes band parents?) Sounds like you're off to another great year. Keep up the good work. Us "band parent alums" are very proud of you!
