As the homecoming season approaches, the Ranger Marching Band prepares for a show based on the homecoming theme: Red, White and Rowdy. For this show, they are asking bands to join for a mass band performance.
Not only for the homecoming football game pregame and halftime, but for the homecoming parade that happens in the morning of the game. During this parade, bands will compete for cash prizes or can join without competing. All bands will get a travel reimbursement for the parade.
Ranger Band’s drum major Dalton Ebert directs the band before their Family Day performance on the field.
If bands wish to stay for the mass band performance, they will receive a free NWOSU homecoming T-Shirt for all students. Bands staying for the mass performance will also receive lunch and more reimbursement for the performance.
For the mass performance, the participating bands will join our Ranger Marching Band in playing “Ride, Rangers, Ride!” for pregame and one selection from the halftime show. The deadline is September 25th. If you have any questions, contact Dr. Corey Burton or our Ranger Band’s Facebook page. You can register your band by going to the Northwestern Homecoming page or by going to the Ranger Band’s Facebook and using the QR code.
The Ranger Marching Band would love to have your bands here for this homecoming!
The performance will be during pregame and halftime of the Homecoming game at Ranger Field.
