What's up, Panthers?
The University of Northern Iowa's Panther Marching Band is known as "The Pride of Panther Nation." This couldn't be more true! Panther Marching Band (PMB) is one of the many great things happening at UNI and watching them perform gives me the goosebumps every time.
There are more students in Panther Marching Band this year than any other year in UNI's history. The record breaking 330 member band also has a great time together and is a great way for students to make connections at UNI and help them to feel that UNI is their home away from home! Unfortunately, I never got the chance to be involved with PMB but all of my friends who have been in PMB or are currently in the band love their experience! They have made great friends and had a blast playing at all the home games as well as traveling to The University of Iowa or Iowa State University to perform.

This past weekend, the Panther Marching Band hosted "Panther Band Day". This was a day where high school students could come to UNI for the day and play with PMB on the field during UNI's home football game. There were almost 500 high school students who attended this event which meant that there were about 800 total band members performing on the field!
If you are thinking about joining the Panther Marching Band, I would definitely encourage you to do so! You will get the chance to be part of community that loves UNI, loves each other, and loves to play music together. YOU can have the wonderful opportunity to be part of the Pride of Panther Nation.
Sincerely,
STAR Sarah
