ONGOING PROJECT - IF YOU WANT TO HELP, SCROLL DOWN FOR MORE INFORMATION
Millard West Wildcat Classic
Millard West Wildcat Classic
The Wildcat Classic is an annual marching contest hosted by Millard West High School, and held at Millard South High School's Buell Stadium; it began in 2010.
Below is an attempt to compile the very first publicly-available—of its scale/depth—known complete history of that NSBA-sanctioned marching invitational; this attempt involves compiling every prelims and finals performance and result of every band from every year of competition, along with competition dates, and other additional information.
How You Could Help
How You Could Help
Feel free to email milesdivis@gmail.com if you would like to provide additional information or revision proposals, preferably accompanied with historical evidence (documents, photos, videos, etc.); any and all meaningful assistance will optimize the presentation, accessibility, and understanding of the history of the contest for the general public.
If you are looking for some of the biggest known ways you could contribute, the following may be very instrumental for the project:
Videos pertaining to the contest
Most helpful in verifying participation records, contest results, potentially band classifications, potentially host locations, and potentially contest dates.
To contribute, send digital videos; complete footage (from the actual start to finish of the original videos) are preferred.
School-owned awards
Most helpful in verifying participation records and contest results.
To contribute, send photographs or scans of those awards. Ensure that all elements are within the image, and that all text is readable.
Marching contest schedules/programs
Most helpful in discovering potential participating schools, finding potential inconsistencies in contest results sources, and verifying band classifications.
To contribute, send scans of those programs (or at least, send photographs); scans of entire schedules/programs are preferred.
Clarifications and Additional Details:
- For a number of contest editions, various online sources may offer information, of insufficient specificity, regarding how awards may have differentiated between the prelims and the finals, whether they involve class rankings, overall rankings, etc.. Since the historian intends to simulate the contest experience as closely as possible in this retrospective presentation, he will mainly gather participation records, until such specific awards information is available.
