Jefferson BANDS 

Marching band

ensemble Info

Marching Band is a voluntary activity, and only meets as an extracurricular ensemble.  

Directors:  Tyler Long / Becky Winger / Jeremiah Boes

Semesters:  Extracurricular - (After School) - during Fall semester

Prerequisite: Permission of Director of Bands

The Jefferson Marching Band is comprised of all instrumentalists at Jefferson who wish to participate in the competitive marching band.  Membership in this ensemble requires the willingness and ability to attend all extra-curricular practices and performances for the ensemble.  The schedule of additional practices and performances is distributed at the Spring "Call-Out" meeting, prior to the next school year. 

Additionally, marching band families will be responsible for paying a participation fee, which covers program design, additional staffing, travel costs for the season, and many other items.  Fund-raising opportunities do exist for all families, and assistance from the Jefferson Band Boosters is also possible.  Specific financial concerns and/or needs may be discussed with the band staff.

The band will be exposed to advanced techniques related to the marching band idiom, including advanced tone production, rhythmic development, balance and blend, stylistic refinement, and showmanship attributes necessary for their performances.

The marching band will perform extensively through the fall semester, including all home football games and at state and regional competitions. Travel, both in and out of state, is a regular occurrence for this ensemble.
