The Bourbon County high school invitational has been a staple in the Kentucky band world for many years. This year we are determined to have one of the best judging panels of the year, providing bands with excellent early season feedback. Our new turf and stadium improvements will be a great for the performers and spectators.
Please note because of early registration for this event, it is not a sanctioned KMEA event. There are plenty of other weekends for Kentucky bands to attend their minimum of 2 sanctioned events needed to qualify for KMBC. Almost all of these judges are on the KMEA list.
