Hey Everyone!

So like last year, we are going to allow the public to also vote in our Bands of the Year voting. In years past, this was only for directors, judges, IMO staff, etc. Last year, we introduced a public voting scheme, which a few people took part in. We created a seperate ballot just for you guys, and then tabulated your votes. Those placements because 1 ballot in the actual Bands of the Year voting. We would like to do it again.

In order to vote, you will need to signup using our BotY registration process. That can be found at http://ilmarching.com/publicBotySignup.php.

When you signup, you will be sent an email giving you instructions on how to proceed. Please note, if you signed up last year, you need to sign up again!! We purged the database of all last years results, including public registration.

We hope you will take part in this…it is always a lot of fun every year for the staff, and we hope you all have fun with it too!
