DOUGLAS COUNTY FAIR PARADE 

Our students rocked their first official performance of the season at the Douglas County Fair Parade! With pride, precision, and plenty of spirit, they marched through the streets like pros. A huge shoutout to Mr. Rausch and Robby Stroup for an incredible first week of band camp, the students for putting in so much hard work, and the amazing parents who helped guide our students and keep them hydrated during the parade!

From early morning rehearsals to shared laughs during breaks, new friendships are forming and team spirit is in full swing. The energy is high, the music is coming together, and we’re hitting all the right notes for a strong and exciting season ahead!
