About the Marching Red
Raiders:
The Huntley High School
Marching Band includes students of the Concert Band, Wind Symphony and
Percussion Ensemble. Sectionals are held on alternate Tuesday
nights through the summer, and the full band comes together for three
rehearsal "camps," each lasting 3 or 4 days, for five hours each day.
Through the first quarter, each
class spends 3 or 4 days each week rehearsing marching band material, and
begins working on concert band music during the remaining
days. The full band rehearses Monday and Wednesday evenings
for two hours. The color guard is entirely extra-curricular.
The Marching Red Raiders
perform at all home football games, various local parades and events, and
participate in 3 or 4 band competitions each fall.
