“With calendars already jam-packed and buses scheduled, it became evident that the move from Oct. 19 to Oct. 12 at the College of New Jersey would be difficult, if not impossible, for bands to overcome,” said Tim Gallagher, Event Manager for the USSBA. “We’re still full speed ahead to make the Southern New Jersey Regional a success on the same Oct. 19th date, just a few miles down the road at Washington Township High School in Sewell, N.J.”
