Immediately following the conclusion of critique, bands are able to sign up for a winds clinic with DCI Hall of Famer John Meehan, the Magic Valley Classic Music judge. Please see sign up below. The cost is $150 per band, or $10 per student if you have fewer than 15 students attending the clinic. The clinic is primarily aimed at brass and woodwind players, however guard and percussion may observe at no cost. All proceeds will go directly to John Meehan.

John Meehan has been a part of the Blue Devils brass staff since 1994, helping to lead the corps to an impressive number of Jim Ott Best Brass Performance awards and DCI World Championship titles.

With experience at all levels of the Blue Devils organization, Meehan performed as a member of the Blue Devils C Open Class corps in 1980, before spending three years with Blue Devils B, then marching another four years in the organization’s World Class corps. Most recently he has served as the brass caption head of the Blue Devils while also arranging music for and teaching members of the Blue Devils B and Blue Devils C.
