This past Saturday The Carrollton City Schools, the Carrollton Trojan Marching Band, and the Carrollton Trojan Band Boosters hosted the Inaugural Legacy of Champions Marching Band Competition. The event took place on the gorgeous 130-acre campus of the Carrollton City School system, within historic Grisham Stadium.

The event featured performances by fifteen local and regional bands, including exhibition performances by Valdosta State University and the University of West Georgia. Our guests at the event also enjoyed a variety of vendors, concessions, and first-class facilities that helped to ensure an enjoyable day for everyone. The historic day came to a crescendo with a stunning awards ceremony that was highlighted by the presentation of our massive, one-of-a-kind, traveling Grand Championship Trophy, the Legacy Sword Trophy. At the end of the evening, the Legacy Sword Trophy was awarded to the Whitewater Wildcat Marching Band of Whitewater High School, located in Fayetteville, Georgia. Please join us in congratulating all of the students, staff, boosters, and supporters of Whitewater High School Band for their remarkable achievements at the Legacy of Champions Marching Band Competition.

We would also like to say a big thank you to all of the Carrollton community for your overwhelming encouragement and support. Also, thank you to the herculean efforts of our event staff and volunteers. Plans are already underway for next year’s event as we look forward to continuing the legacy!
