Very Special Thank You!
I wanted to take the time and say thank you to all the volunteers that helped at the first
annual McKinney Boyd Winter Guard Competition! Our contest proved to be very
successful! Many color guards enjoyed their time at Boyd. I received many comments
on how helpful our parents and students were during the event. I also received many
comments on how organized and prepared we were for the event. The judges and
NTCA officials were very impressed with our hospitality! Thank you so much for
everyone's hard work on Saturday and thank you to all the parents who helped
prepare for this event! Many people worked very hard to make this competition
happen! Great job everyone!
Sincerely
Jason Myers
For the second year in a row, the McKinney Boyd High
School Color Guard came home with a medal from
the NTCA State Winter Guard Championships! The
Boyd guard finished third and was awarded the bronze
medal in an extremely tough and very competitive
Scholastic AA Class. The ladies of the guard put on an
amazing performance and gave their heart and soul
on the floor. Their energy and emotion only electrified
the crowd that propelled the ladies on their way to their
second straight medal! This medal is two classes
higher than last year! The guard finished out the entire
McKinney Boyd Guard Medals At Championships

school year with over 8 top three finishes, 5 grand champion trophies, promotion in
two classifications, and a bronze medal in the SAA class. The guard also never
finished below 3rd place during the entire school year! Congratulations ladies on a
great year! We are so proud of you!!

DCI Comes To Dallas, TX.
For two nights drum corps from across the
nation will be descending upon the Dallas / Ft.
Worth area to compete in a two day competition
on July 22 and July 23. Some of the best color
guards from around the country will be
performing at Lake Highlands High School. Dont
miss this one year event! Tickets are on sale at

www.dci.org/tickets. Scroll down to find the two Dallas dates. I highly recommend the
July 22 show. The corps on the 22nd include the Blue Devils, The Cadets, and The
Cavaliers. See for yourself what Drum Corps is all about! Check out the 2006
Cavaliers show - "Machine," or one of my personal favorites, the 2002 Cavaliers -
"Frameworks." One of the coolest shows ever written for the marching field! For
more information on DCI, go to www.dci.org!
This event is not required and is only optional for all members. If you would like to go,
you must purchase tickets on your own. We highly recommend that you go in a
