Tiger Marching Band
It's just not a football game at FHSU without the roaring thunder and spirit of the Tiger Marching Band! Made up of approximately 150 students from all academic disciplines, the band has a long tradition of excellence in service to the university. The Tiger Marching Band is one of the largest and most popular student groups on campus. Fans love our traditional pre-game show, our innovative halftime shows, and our spirit in the stands as we cheer the Tiger Football team onto victory!
All academically qualifying Marching Band members earn a stipend starting at $400 for first-year members. Stipends for the FHSU Colorguard start at $450. Stipend amounts go up each year with bonuses for student leaders and officers.
Non-music major instrumentalists are also eligible for an additional $200 called the Miller Award. All students, regardless of major, are also encouraged to audition for scholarships available through the Department of Music and Theatre.
