We teach the older youth Sunday School class in Hannibal. The only young men in our class are twins Caden and Landon Cooke. They are both part of the show choir in the local high school. We were asking them about the competitions they take part in.
They told us that they had a competition in Fort Madison on March 7th. That is a lot closer than going to Hannibal to see them in concert.
They do a show for about 15-20 minutes with a theme. I didn't recognize any of the music but that didn't mean it wasn't entertaining. They had a change of costume during the show.
Caden is the dark haired guy in the middle front. They got a bunch of first place trophys. They had best choreography and the best band. The band was behind the risers. They has some other first places too but I don't recall what.
They were just an amazing group! When we asked Caden on Sunday about how they did, he was amazed that we showed up to support them. I told them I texted Landon and he responded what time we needed to be there.
I can't imagine how long it took them to learn not only all the music but the choreography as well. They must have spent a lot of hours practicing.
I don't know exactly how many school participated, but there were at least 10-12. This wasn't just schools from one state, but the entire tri-state area.
In the end, River City Revue were the grand champions!
