The 2024 BRMB season has come to an end, and we can now look back on our experiences with fondness as well as sadness at its conclusion. We performed at 8 football games in total, and we made trips to Brown, Princeton, and Columbia to show them what a real marching band looks like. On November 16th, we had a long senior concert to say goodbye to the large class of 2025, and then we finished out the season with the Sy Katz ‘31 Parade the following week. We loved getting to see so many of you that came to see us at Homecoming, Sy Katz, or an away game.
As Alumni Relations Chairs, we did our best to provide hospitality to all of you who came to visit us at Reunion and Homecoming, and we thank all of you who attended and cheered us on like crazy or even played with us. You guys are the best fanbase we could hope for. Many of the memories which we will cherish the most are the away trips, bus rides, parades, and relationships that we build in the process. None of this would be possible without the support of you, the alumni, and for that we are forever grateful.
Finally, we would also like to thank our wonderful head manager EJ, for doing her job extremely well, and for providing us guidance and assistance in carrying out our responsibilities.
We have been privileged to serve as your 2024 ARCs, and with the publishing of these Band Notes we pass the torch to those who will hold this position next year.
Peace and we ALMOST got 50,
Erin Baum ‘24
Bobby “Duck” Haig ‘25
Kelly “Komet” Leiby ‘26
Dina Nabavian ‘27
P.S. This year we were able to celebrate wins at both Homecoming and Senior Day for the first time since 2013! Let’s hope that Cornell Football is due for a resurgence in coming years under new head coach Dan Swanstrom.
And now… presenting the only REAL Band Notes in the Ivy League!
