This year's 5A Region 3 marching competition will be held at Mesquite Memorial Stadium on Wednesday, October 24, 2001. A schedule of the days activities is provided by clicking here. If you would like to read more about how the contest is judged, October's Escadrille Newsletter has a nice article on the subject.
There's a lot of really good bands, color guards, and flag corps in Region 3 and they will all be performing in Mesquite on October 24. So, come and enjoy the music and support The Escadrille during their performance.

The University Interscholastic League regulates interschool competition among most
public schools in Texas. The league's homepage can be found at

The Allen High School Escadrille has a rich history as documented in the U.I.L. archives. The Escadrille placed in the top three marching groups at the State U.I.L. marching contest for 5 consecutive years, 1985 - 1989. That amazing run included 1st Place finishes in 1987 and 1988.
In 1990, U.I.L. changed their marching competition format and began annually
alternating the State 4A with the State 5A marching competition.
2001 is a 4A year and as such the Escradrille will not have a path to compete at the
State Marching Competition until fall of 2002. However, a Superior Division Rating is a
tradition for Escadrille and the first step in the coveted U.I.L. Sweepstakes Award.
