Illinois High School Association has selected the Richland County High School Pep Band to play at the 2019 Boys Basketball State Tournament at the Peoria Civic Center on Saturday, March 9th. The 40-piece Pep Band will comprise of the Honors Wind Ensemble and select members from the Symphonic Band. The band was selected from an audition process that included the top pep bands throughout the state of Illinois.
The tentative pep band roster may be found at the bottom of this post. Members of the Honors Wind Ensemble were selected, plus seniors in the Symphonic Band, and select underclassmen to fill out a few sections within the pep band. Unfortunately, due to the restriction on band size, not everyone in the Symphonic Band is able to participate.
Uniform: blue jeans, tennis shoes, department shirt, band hockey jerseys. Students may wear the department sweatshirt.
Packing List: money (lunch & dinner), coat, instruments, & extra reeds. OPTIONAL: pillow and a blanket for the bus ride. We will make brief stops on the way to and from Peoria for restroom breaks.
