Thank you to every alumni and family member who made it out to Homecoming 2019! We had a huge, wonderful turnout thanks to your support.
Next year's Homecoming was just announced for Saturday, October 31st where we take on the Rutgers Scarlet Knights. We hope to see you there!
There is a Mens basketball game vs Rhode Island on Saturday, November 9th at 9 pm — the same day that the MSOM will be at Ohio State for the Terps Football game. Alumni are needed to cover pep band.
Drum kit and sousaphones will be provided, but everyone else must bring their own instruments. We will be playing the same music as last year, and a music rehearsal will be scheduled in the week prior to the game.
The band really needs us; all students and staff will be at Ohio State. So please help out if you can. Check your calendars and sign up today!
We are starting our planning for the second annual UMBAO Gala, to be held February 16, 2020. This year’s theme: Mardi Gras. In particular we are looking for someone to coordinate the folks who made the trip down to New Orleans in 2007. Please contact us if you would like to learn more about helping with the Gala. Thanks!
The Bands of America Mid-Atlantic Regional Championship is being held at Maryland Stadium. Help the MSOM host the event, and stay for the MSOM exhibition! (Times approximate. Details forthcoming.)

Greetings, Band Alumni!
I hope this message finds you all enjoying a wonderful summer so far!
Now that I have been “official” for one entire month, I wanted to reach out to say, “Hello!” and to give you a few updates of what has been happening in the Band Office.
The month has been filled with meeting a lot of folks and trying to learn as much as possible about all things MSOM. I was very grateful to have the opportunity to meet with the UMBAO officers mid-June. There was lots of ground to cover, but lots of exciting opportunities are ahead! In the coming months we will be bringing you all more details about this year’s Homecoming celebration (it’s our 110th year!) as well as opportunities to interact with the current members of MSOM during Early Week. You as alumni are an integral part of the past, present, and future success of the Maryland Bands and we look forward to strengthening the ties that bind. I consider meeting and interacting with the alumni a very important aspect of my position and look forward to meeting and working with all of you.
