Friday night: It's the return of "a band of living musical ghosts"

Bluffton HS alumni marching band performs at Harmon Field pre-game
Posted by Fred Steiner on September 5, 2019 - 3:45pm

“Approaching from the sidelines is the Bluffton High School alumni marching band!”

Listen for that announcement at Friday’s Harmon Field football pre-game. Then sit back and listen to living musical ghosts of Pirate bands going all the way back to the Jo Souder-era of the early 1960s.

Racheal Lewis, Bluffton schools strings teacher, first invited BHS band alumni to perform as a marching band in 2013. The band, consisting of anyone who once wore a BHS band uniform, performs in a pre-game every other year.
