This marching season was a first in the history of Bentonville West High School. The Midnight Regiment became the second Arkansas school to ever make finals at the St. Louis BOA Super Regional Marching Contest, placing 13th out of over 65 bands.
And speaking of making history, we’re thrilled to congratulate our neighbors at BHS for making finals at BOA Grand Nationals in Indianapolis—an Arkansas first!
