Marching Band Live 10/19 & 10/21! All the Info!

It was great to have our HHS Marching Band back on the football field Friday night!  Great job Highlanders!  Thank you to everyone that helped - we couldn't do this without you. We're happy to have two more performances on October 19th and 21st.  Here are the details:

  • Marching Band Live Performance begins - 7 p.m. in the stadium.  Students will be performing their step-off routine at the stadium so no need to be over at the band room to see this great tradition.  Get comfy at the stadium and ready for a great show!
  • ALL students will perform at each performance.  They are able to have 4 guests at ONE of the performances as listed below. Physical tickets will not be issued - signing up on the Google form below is your "ticket"
  • Admittance is through the main gate only and you MUST: be on the "pass/ticket list" and wear a mask in order to enter.  Masks must remain on at all times while you are in the football stadium.
  • Performance ends - approximately 7:45 p.m.  Students return to the band room to turn in uniforms and put instruments away.
  • Unfortunately, no visitors in the band room please!  We love to see our band families but, due to safety precautions, please only come to the band room if you are in the marching band OR are signed up with Christyne MacDermaid to help with uniforms.  
  • Due to Covid-19 restrictions, we are limited on the number of helpers we can have in the band room this year.  If you are interested in helping with uniforms, please email Christyne MacDermaid at christynemacdermaid@gmail.com and she will contact you to let you know if help is needed.
