40 for 40 Thank You

 

The Longhorn Band wishes to thank everyone who donated to the UT 40 for 40 campaign last week.  The outpouring support resulted in over $323,000 for student scholarships! Those funds are now invested so that future band members will benefit year after year.

And if that accomplishment were not enough, here are some other recent LHB accomplishments:

  • Supporting our Men’s Basketball team at the NIT as part of the Pep Band.
  • Supporting our Baseball team at the Texas vs. Texas A&M game.
  • Supporting our Women’s Volleyball team during a preseason match as part of the Pep Band.
  • Being recognized at UT Honors Day this past Saturday.
  • Performing in the Wind Symphony as part of a joint performance with musicians from the Austin Youth Orchestra
  • Raising funds for endowed scholarships with Tau Beta Sigma and Kappa Kappa Psi.
  • Performing in the Symphony Band and in the Wind Ensemble with special guest composer Omar Thomas.
  • Raising funds for the Longhorn Band Student Association.

Our LHB students are amazing, and your support helps them to achieve great things.  Thanks for all you do!

Hook ’em,
LHAB
