Hi Alumni!

We hope that you all have had a wonderful summer. For those of you that were around for Reunion, it was an absolute pleasure to meet you all! Reunion was a blast and we love hearing all of the band stories that you all have. Now its time for the most wonderful time of the year: Band Season!

This fall we have a lot of exciting events happening. Read below to learn more.

Homecoming will be on September 19th this year. Come on over to the Fischell Band Center starting at 11:30AM  for a BRBAA Tailgate where you can talk with fellow Alumni and get to meet some of the new members of the Big Red Bands! We will have food, drinks, and merchandise for you all.
