Marching Band

Hard to believe we’re already planning for the next season of Marching Band. The 2024-25 commitment forms and schedules were sent out last week and are due by February 28th. You can find the information HERE if you did not receive by email. If you know anybody interested, feel free to share.

For all of our new families, we will be updating our website with new information in the upcoming weeks and months. You can find information from the past season HERE for reference but it will be updated with new information as it becomes available. Look for a Rookie Meeting to be scheduled in the spring and all sorts of information to come soon about how to get and stay connected. THIS is also a good starting point. We are looking forward to meeting you and welcoming you into the band family with open arms!

Volunteers

We will be making nominations for the Upbeat Club Executive Board at our next meeting on March 21. If you are interested in learning more, please reach out to president@lakotawestbands.org.
