Dear Esteemed Rampage Attendees ,
Greetings , and our heartfelt appreciation for joining us at the 39th Annual Rampage Field Show Competition , hosted by William S . Hart High School . Your presence today means the world to us .
We are thrilled to bring you one of Santa Clarita ' s grandest live music events , and we acknowledge the immense effort it takes to orchestrate such a tournament . Our partnership with the College of the Canyons and their remarkable facilities has been instrumental in making today possible .
As you witness the exceptional performances of the bands , you ' ll surely understand why Rampage stands as a highlight of the marching season . For nearly four decades , Rampage has been a remarkable community gathering . It ' s made possible through the support of businesses and individuals across the valley . Please take a moment to express your gratitude to the volunteers and vendors you encounter today , as their contributions are integral to making Rampage one of Southern California ' s premier marching tournaments .
When you watch these dedicated students on the field , you ' re witnessing individuals who have committed themselves to an activity that fosters tolerance , self-esteem , discipline , teamwork , and a lifelong appreciation for the arts . We encourage you to applaud each ensemble as though they were your own , recognizing the immense time , effort , and talent they ' ve invested in their craft .
Finally , I extend my deepest and most sincere gratitude to every individual , whether family , staff , faculty , or friend , who plays a role in making today and every day possible for our students . Thank you to the educators who share their vast knowledge , the administrators who provide unwavering support , and all the remarkable parents . On behalf of all directors , I want to emphasize that without our dedicated parents who tirelessly sell , sew , cook , build , transport , chaperone , and cheer us on as if we were the greatest band ever assembled , we couldn ' t offer the programs we do . The influence of the teaching and encouragement provided by all of us plays a significant role in shaping our world by nurturing tomorrow ' s leaders and visionaries . We deeply appreciate your continuous dedication to this endeavor .
Thank you for your attendance and unwavering support of these outstanding young performers . Warm regards ,
Anthony H . Bailey Director of Bands
