Things We LikeWhat a proud moment for the HHS Band as Alumni performed in front of 88,000 at the Iron Bowl this past Saturday! Band takes you to amazing places - Southern Cathedrals of culture around the Southeastern Conference. Many thanks for coming together! Alabama and Auburn Marching Band students travel to select road games with charter bus, police escort and catering. In a 48 hour span, the Million Dollar Band members traveled to New York City (New York City!!!) to headline the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade... in CHARTER AIRPLANES... returned home, immediately loaded to Auburn, and Sunday performed at the Bama Women's Game. In some cases - even getting paid. This is an extraordinary way to go through college - and it all starts by learning basics of technique, theory and musicianship. Visit with Mr. Tankesley, Mrs. Connell, or any band parent of a college student to learn more about the incredible opportunity BAND offers you in college! This is the Big Leagues!

Anyone without "Cancel for any reason" trip insurance is risking not receiving a refund if the trip were to be cancelled or you were not allowed to go due to quarantine/Covid.
