Stroudsburg, PA - July 1995

Here is how it went down in a very very hot and muggy evening.  Daytime 
temps where around 105 on the practice field.  All corps should be 
commended by sticking it out in the extreme weather conditions.

1)  Caballeros 80.5
2)  Bushwackers 78.8
3)  Westshoreman 77.?
4)  Hurricains 70.?
5)  Skyliners 69.?
6)  Crusaders 66.?
7)  Chieftains ??.? Sorry guys I missed that score completely.

Personal Review:

The Cabs came out on fire and never let up.  It seems the hot weather 
only brought to life a hotter performance from the cabs.  The marching 
was clean, the drum line wailing, and the horn line too hot to handle!
Taking 1st with an 80.5

The Bushwackers had a long hard day of practice, and despite the 
miserable conditions performed a great show.  I personally don't care for 
the book they have chosen for it does nothing for me at all from a GE 
standpoint, however they are practically running around the field at 
times.  I did notice several near falls and collisions however but the 
fatigue factor of the day could have been a big factor.  Taking 2nd with 
a 78.8 this week.

The Westshoreman I cannot review because I missed them.  (Sorry)  Taking 
3rd this week with a 77.?

The Hurricains I cannot review either, sorry guys.  Taking 4th with a 70.?

The Skyliners took some time to get it going tonight.  They were not very 
clean at all from either a marching or playing standpoint, but the show 
just got better and better as they went along.  By the end of the show 
they had the crowd on their feet cheering their climactic closer.  Their 
color guard was very very good tonight and kept most of my attention 
throughout the show.  Taking 5th with a 69.?

The Crusaders I cannot review either but I have an additional note here 
for all of you Empire Fans.  Last weekend Empire beat the Crusaders by 
approx. 7 points, this weekend the Cabs beat them by approx. 15 points!  
Bush of course beating them by 13 points, and WS by 12!  Sorry ES but no 
repeats for you.  Taking 6th with a 66.?

The Chieftains, although I didn't get their score did a great job as host 
corp tonight.  They are doing a tribute show to the 50's and let me tell 
you they have alot of fun with this show.  I would love to see them make 
finals this year, because despite their size and ability they are really 
a great crowd pleaser.  Isnt' this what it's all about.  Great job guys.
Taking 7th with ??.?  (Again sorry)

Cya next weekend in Clifton, NJ for the annual Hawthorne Grand Prix.  
Letz all hope for some cooler weather.

BTW for all of you Hawthorne fans, the Caballeros Alumni Corp will also 
be in attendance this comming weekend with a few suprises for you, so be 
sure to be there.

Adios
