Marching Hundred News

Message from The Colonel
Director of Athletic Bands - David C. Woodley

Dear Hundred fan,

The Marching Hundred enters the busiest stretch of the season this week as we host Homecoming activities here in Bloomington. Catch the Hundred at the Homecoming parade and pep rally, Friday October 27. On Saturday, IU hosts Michigan State in football and the Hundred will appear at The Walk at 9:50 a.m. Kickoff is set for noon.

Our halftime show this week was conceived and designed by Associate Instructor Matt Brunner. We'll feature the Alumni Band at both pre-game and half-time. On Sunday, the Marching Hundred will appear in Assembly Hall at the annual Showcase Concert, featuring music from the 2006 season. Trumpeter Joey Tartell will be our featured soloist. The concert starts at 1:00 p.m.

We hope you can join the Hundred this weekend for all of our Homecoming events!
