Youth in Music

A band practicing for their 2007 performance in the Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome
The Youth in Music championships are a marching band competition held annually at the Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome in Minneapolis, Minnesota in late October. This year's Championship will be on October 13th, 2012. Participating are the top-ranked high school marching bands from Minnesota, as well as participants from Illinois, Wisconsin, Iowa, South Dakota and Nebraska.[1] Due to the timing of the event, at the end of the field show season, it is considered to determine the Minnesota State Champion band.[2][3] The program was begun in 2003 by Greg Struve.
