Tri-State Band Festival, Enid

Evidence note · high confidence

What the evidence supports

The May 10, 1951 Oklahoma City Times reports 67 bands in Enid from Oklahoma, Kansas, Missouri, Arkansas, Louisiana, New Mexico, Colorado and Texas.

Limits and open questions

Multi-state figure, not an Oklahoma ensemble count. The 1944 festival evidence was already incorporated. No new anonymous bands created.

Confidence detail: high. Evidence notes are not a count of distinct ensembles.
