Battle of the Bands 3

The Youth Institute hosted its 3rd Annual Battle of the Bands, high school bands were selected to duke it out in a very intense competition held at the Scottish Rite Cathedral Theater. Georgia Terminal, Twin Pines, The Anachronisms, and 3rd Perspective all put on their game faces to play a fifteen-minute set each that evening. Along with the competing bands, we had three very special guest performers, Fox Hollow, JL, which includes our very own alumni Leslie and John, and The Marital, which includes alumni, Kevin, Matt, and Nick. With the support of our alumni, the bands, and our community, we raised over $3000 for our YMCA and Youth Institute. Special thanks to Zumiez for supporting the event and State Farm Insurance for co-sponsoring our event! Their generosity led to a fun-filled raffle. The grand raffle prize, a new Macbook, was the ultimate showstopper! Three hours of inspiring music, fun giveaways, endless amounts of laughing and screaming, our third Battle of the Bands was no less than successful. Our packed house with over 400 guests attending the event gave us a reason to prepare for our next Battle of the Bands! Click here to view all of the photos.
