Marching Band

Richmond Hill Wildcat Marching Band.

Marching band is always a work in progress to achieve a higher degree of excellence. The students strive to play cleaner, stronger and march more precisely. The RHHS Marching Band has earned the local title of "The Little Band with the Big Sound".

Through the leadership of their drum major, Lauren Brinkley, the marching band has accomplished many goals this season. Of course, this is all completed under the watchful eye of band director Mr. David Keith.
