JE Home Show Draws Nearly 1,000 Spectators for a Successful Event

The Jordan-Elbridge Home Show on Saturday, September 7, 2024, was a resounding success, drawing close to 1,000 spectators from all over New York State. With eight bands competing, the event showcased incredible musical talent and captivating performances.

Participating bands included:

  • Jordan-Elbridge
  • Auburn
  • Vestal
  • Westmoreland
  • Horseheads
  • West Genesee
  • Baldwinsville
  • Cicero-North Syracuse

This year, the JE Marching Eagles debuted their highly anticipated 2024 show, “Why So Serious”, centered around the complex relationship between the Joker and Harley Quinn from the Batman universe. The performance dives into the highs and lows of their chaotic connection, creating a dramatic and intense experience for the audience. The show’s immersive environment featured students in full costume and face paint, while towering Gotham City props, including one over 15 feet tall, set the stage for this high-energy spectacle.

“We have very high hopes for this season with the dedicated group that we have,” said JE Marching Eagles Band Director, Dan English. “Every time we step on the field, we aim to win a state championship. This year is no different.”

The Marching Eagles are off to a strong start, scoring the second-highest in their class statewide during the Home Show, just missing the top spot by a narrow margin. As they look ahead, the team has their sights set on the Cicero-North Syracuse Home Show this weekend, aiming to claim the top score.

In November, the Marching Eagles will take their talents to Allentown, PA, to compete in the US Band National Championship, where they will face top bands from across the country. With the momentum from the Home Show and their strong performances, the Jordan-Elbridge Marching Eagles are ready to soar through the season.
