PLEASE READ this entire edition of The Blast as it contains information you need to know about our fun-filled weekend with your Alumni Band friends. The Band Day Schedule will be similar to last year’s schedule, with Saturday times to be adjusted for the game time being one hour earlier. When the times are finalized, the schedule will be sent by email and posted on the LHAB website.  For the latest Band Day updates please check the website regularly.

Follow us on Twitter, friend us on Facebook, and generally keep up with LHAB through our social media groups and website.  For more information, check out lhab.org/groups.

This year we are setting a goal of 1,111 band members on the field on 11-11-17 for our Veteran’s Day Halftime performance.  Dr. Scott Hanna has a special Veteran’s Day program, so please start contacting your friends from your section and making arrangements for everyone to attend.  If all attendees will use the motto of “Bring a Friend; Tell a Friend” – we anticipate an incredible turnout for this year’s Alumni Band Day.

Hook’em!
