They were chosen as the lead band in the 2017 Tournament of Roses Parade and joined bands from across the world. They spent months raising enough money for the nearly 230 members and chaperones to make the trip.
The "Kings of Halftime" have a storied history.
Established in 2001 without instruments, facilities or even a school, the band has grown from 30 members to more than 200. In 2006, they became the first American marching band to perform in Johannesburg, South Africa. In 2008, they took part in the Cotton Bowl in Dallas, Texas. This year, they took California.
