Alumni/Community Band Info and Music

This weekend "The Pride of Shaker Heights" will be hosting the Alumni/Community Band for our Homecoming Game on Saturday, 10/12, vs. Medina.  Any adults are welcome to participate, as well as younger siblings or friends of current high school band members.  Any younger players should be sponsored by a current high school band member or have an adult participating with them.  We will be performing "Let's Groove" from Earth, Wind, and Fire and "Sir Duke" by Stevie Wonder, as well as an optional (and easy) marching drill during a percussion section feature.

We will have a rehearsal at 11 AM on Saturday to prepare for the halftime show.  Music is available below and can also be picked up in the band office.  If you have any questions, please call the band office at 295-4233.
