Again this year, Tom Cook is serving as the UM Alumni Band Organizing Committee Chair. He may be reached at tomjanie@msn.com.
Last fall, more than 80 alums gathered to enjoy our 18th Annual UM Alumni Band Reunion. After a Friday afternoon rehearsal and fun time together, we gathered that evening for the traditional annual banquet at the Holiday Inn Parkside. Co-emcees Brad Abbott and Randy Zschaechner did a great job leading the often-raucous proceedings, and everyone enjoyed the evening, capped off with some great music for dancing and listening by our Alumni Jazz Band. The next morning, thousands turned out to watch Saturday's parade, and our enthusiastic Alumni Marching Band wowed the crowd with their energetic music and stellar marching. We also played from the stands and were featured during halftime of the football game as special guests of the University Marching Band. It was a wonderful weekend, and, if YOU weren't there, YOU missed out!!!
So, here's your chance to join us for our reunion this fall! Those dates are September 28th and 29th, and NOW is the time to make your plans to be on hand!
