Attention Marching Pioneers Alumni! Come play with us!!
Would you like to perform with this year's Marching Pioneers?
Homecoming is fast approaching. On Saturday, Oct. 10, UW-Platteville will be celebrating Homecoming, and we would like to invite you to come and play with the band. There will be a mandatory rehearsal at 11 am that day at the track (just across the street from the stadium). At 12:30 pm, we will march over to the stadium. If you plan to perform with the alumni color guard, please email me at [email protected]. The songs you will be playing with us are "Shake A Tailfeather" and the School Song (we will have copies of the School Song at rehearsal). YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR BRINGING YOUR OWN INSTRUMENT AND LYRE. You can find the sheet music for Shake A Tailfeather here (click on blue letters, NOT ON THE GREY BOX):
