The 83-member Carlson band directed by David Brockington achieved a final score of 1 on a scale of 1-5. A 1 represents the best performance and 5 the worst, explained James Engelbert, director of the Flat Rock High School Marching Band.
A three-member panel judged each of the 11 bands that took part on their music, marching and general effect on the audience.
Carlson's band earned a 1 in each category. The band's theme was "Spy Games: The Case of the Golden Trumpet."
