The Darkness organization has completed its 6th season, and has FAR excedeeded expectations.
Darkness Drum and Bugle Corps won its first Division 1 championship, with a record high score of 91.08, and for the first time ever, a FULL caption sweep! The corps record was 23 - 1. The corps program "La Fiesta Mexicana" rocked the house!
Darkness Marching was much the same story, its first Division 1 championship with a record high score of 91.055 and also produced a full caption sweep! The bands record was 24 - 1. The bands program "The Event" scared everyone out of there seats and onto their feet!
The Darkness guard did much the same as the above two, winning also its first Division 1 championship with a record high score of 88.13 and ending with a record of 21 - 3. The guard produced a full caption sweep. The guards program "The Celebration" was a success!
The Thunder drum line won its second Division one title (previous one in season 1) with a record high score of 84.67. The drum line ended with a record of 21 - 3. The fast moving program "The Ascent" captured the audience, as well as the judges.
Darkness ended on a high note, but the journey there was not easy. I'd like to thank gcurrier for making it a CLOSE and fun season, tying with those groups once and suffering most defeats to them and them taking GE in drum line. Onto season 6!
