Talk of the Town Carolinas visited the event to find out more about CWEA (Carolina Winter Ensemble Association) and the Rock Hill Band program. Host Patti Mercer interviewed Rock Hill Band Director Ben Hingle, Rock Hill Band Booster President Matt Meadows and CWEA administrators Stacey Terlizzi and Zack McCarter,

Rock Hill High School Band, called the Band of Distinction, played a big role in hosting a regional Carolina Winter Ensemble Association competition. More than 80 school ensembles participated in this all day Saturday event. The Rock Hill Band Boosters recruited over 70 volunteers to help set up and run the Saturday CWEA event. Band Director Ben Hingle said the CWEA indoor competition keeps their marching band color guard, percussion, and wind ensemble units engaged and competing during the winter months. Band Booster President Matt Meadows tells us how the event enables their band to raise money for needed equipment and helps feature their band program and school.
