Hello all,
Please see below for some last important updates!
Marching Band/Band Photos
We have an amazing group of volunteers that help to document all of the things we do in the program and the success of your students! Please feel free to give our photos page a visit.

As you will notice in the schedule below, there will be two options for return time. If we win first place, we will stay for the exhibition performance at 7pm and return around 9pm.

State Information
including the bag policy.
Bags must be clear or smaller than 6.5" x 4.5."
Exceptions are made for medical equipment, videography equipment and other essential items. Those bags are subject to search. UW-W Police Services will send spectators back to their vehicle if their bag is too large, please help share this information.
We'd love for as many families and friends to be present at state to cheer the band on! Lots of cheering, excitement, and clapping throughout is always helpful! Links to purchase tickets etc. are listed above, and we hope to see you there!
Student Awards Dinner
We will have a short dinner for students on Monday 10/19 4:30-5:30pm in the north commons. We will be getting Costco Pizza (Cheese and Pepperoni). This event is for students and an opportunity for them to connect and have some closure on the season (and give out a few student awards). If you're in jazz, you'll just head over to your first rehearsal right after!
