Lending a musical accent to pep as- semblies, fo o t b a I I and basketball games, the band members accompanied the songleaders and cheerleaders in pro- moting spirit. Extracurricular activities for the Titan Marching Band included the Veterans Day Parade in November and the Rodeo Parade in February. Moonlight Melo- dies and the All-State Band concert were other annual events. Prerequisites for the Titan Marching Band were cadet band and advanced band.
