Our 2026 Marching Wildcats Information Night will be on Tuesday, May 12th at 7:00 PM in the GBHS Auditorium. Parents and students are welcome!

Enter through Roy's Alley or entrance 24A near the band trailers.

If you cannot attend, there will be a video recap on our band website the following day.

Who can join the Marching Wildcats? For starters, any 9th through 12th grader enrolled at Great Bridge HS that is enrolled in a band class is encouraged to join the program's most visible and active ensemble!

We also have an outstanding Color Guard that includes many students from other music classes at GBHS, but ANYONE enrolled at the school may join, and no experience is necessary!

We are also looking for students at GBHS with any piano experience to perform with our ensemble! If you are interested in playing one of the most important instruments in the Marching Wildcats, and have any piano skills, let Mr. Ross know! (You get to play drums too!)

We can't wait to get started!
