It begins with Cavalcade of Bands, Saturday, October 7th in Kennewick at Lampson Stadium on the campus of Kennewick HS.

We NEED YOUR help the day of the event; especially those of you not involved in the marching band and color guard that day! This fundraiser is one of our primary sources of assisting students that need help for our So Cal trip - PLEASE HELP!


SO CAL

We're up to 97 of our band and guard students registered for this awesome experience! I do intend to run an informational meeting about this trip middle of October to answer any questions you might have. I'm hoping for October 19th so tentatively put that on your calendars (MHS, 7PM).
