For the first time in its history, the Madisonville High School Band program sent three different bands to the UIL competition, winning trophies across all categories.

The varsity band earned sweepstakes honors, the JV band was awarded for excellence in sight-reading, and the concert band also secured sweepstakes honors. 

Art projects on display will be available at the FCS Auction next Thursday, March 21.

Full results will be posted in the special section tab – Madison County Fair & Rodeo – produced locally by The Madisonville Meteor. 

Editor’s Note: “Opinions in this column are not representative of the views of The Madisonville Meteor.” This year, March has certainly held up to its fickle reputation. It seems to enjoy watching people hold onto their hats and pick up the neighbors’ yard décor that has blown over into their yard.
