ThunderWolves Marching Band

The ThunderWolves Marching band is scheduled to debut at the home opener football game against Eastern New Mexico on August 29. This is a new student organization which has been generously funded through campus and community efforts. The band has purchased an immense amount of brand new marching band equipment, including marching brass, percussion instruments, and new uniforms are slated to arrive on campus in early August.

Scholarship Incentives are available to non-music majors who would like to participate in the marching band. Contact Director of Bands, Alan Mills, for more information at x2521 or alan.mills@colostate-pueblo.edu. Participants are required to have at least one year of high school band experience as a wind or percussion player. Students with no formal music training/experience can also participate in the color guard.

1. Contact the Marching Band Director right away! (See the email address and phone number above.)
2. Sign up for the one credit class. (Freshman and sophomores should sign up for MUS 230, while juniors and seniors should sign up for MUS 430.)
