Class AAA............ 60 -79 Winds
Class AAAA......... 80 -100 Winds

- All bands must perform in uniform. All band and auxiliary officers who will participate in the awards ceremony must be in uniform. Officers are to line up on the front hash mark. No other student will be permitted on the field.
- The Lake Hartwell Marching Festival and Competition uses adjudication forms for Modified Olympic style judging with a 4 judge panel.

- No director, parent, or student from any participating band will be allowed in the press box.
- There will be a trophy for all superior and excellent ratings in both the festival and contest. A separate awards ceremony for the festival portion of the contest will take place immediately after the last band has performed. Announcements will be ratings only. No score will be given. A full contest award ceremony will take place after the conclusion of the contest. In addition to the rating awards, 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place in each classification for band, color guard, drum line, drum major, drill team, and majorettes (minimum of 3 required) will be awarded. Additionally, trophies will be awarded for the Silver Division Champion (A-AA), Gold Division Champion (AAA-OPEN), and Grand Champion, the highest total score, regardless of classification.

- At the conclusion of the ceremony, all band members, parents, etc., who are not involved in the awards presentation must not enter the field area. Do not allow your students to climb the fence onto the field. This is not only for the safety of everyone, but also to preserve the dignity of those students accepting trophies for their bands.
- Comment sheets and recordings can be picked up in the pressbox immediately after the awards ceremony.
