We are excited about the upcoming LTHS Marching Ensemble. The complete season schedule for the ensemble is listed below and the daily schedule is posted on the Calendar in the upcoming weeks.
Trial camps and informal rehearsals will take place on Monday and Tuesday (April 8th, 9th, 15th, and 16th) from 3:15-4:30PM at the East Campus Band Room. These camps are structured to introduce new members into the organization and to meet our student leadership team as everyone learns the fundamentals of the ensemble. If you are a veteran member who is looking to get back into the activity or help with new members you are of course welcome to join.
24-25 SCHEDULE
The full schedule for the season in addition to a daily schedule for each competition is posted below. Please reserve the entire day for any events shown on the calendar, all events are planned but subject to change.
