MARCHING BAND

The marching band is a contemporary, performance art ensemble within the WHHS bands program. This ensemble consists of wind players, percussionists, and color guard members.​

 

The marching band is open to all WHHS students and 8th graders zoned for WHHS. Incoming freshmen band students are required to participate in marching band unless they have a fall sports conflict or a documented medical condition preventing physical activity. Fine Arts Center students can join the marching band even if they cannot be in the band class.

​

Participating in Marching Band means committing to the entire season, which consists of:​

​

  • Band camp at the end of July/early August​

  • After school rehearsal three days a week through early November​

  • Participate in each football game and competition scheduled, including most Saturdays in September and October.​

​

Marching band performs at home football games, as well as contests and festivals on most Saturdays in September and October. ​Marching season spans weather from the hottest summer days to cool fall nights​.

 

All band rehearsals, games and competitions are on the calendar on the website as soon as we know them. 

​

Because the creation of the marching band show takes many months, students must commit to participation in the marching band by mid-May each year. When you submit a commitment form, we immediately start spending money for you. Please keep your commitment.

​

You can learn more in the WHHS Band Handbook and tentative schedule.
