What Are We Up To Now?

Well, we don't *only* play instruments, although that is an integral part.  Here's a short list of what we do as an organization.

 

Social Schtuff

  • We play frisbee golf (aka frolf). Click here for a scorecard.
  • The Pep Band hosts parties after every home football game. 9 times out of 10 you can find these happening at around 10:00 pm. 9 times out of ten, the location is not determined until a couple days before the party.
  • There is traditionally a first of the year recruitment party as well, plus other "theme parties", as neccessary.
  • Halloween generally sees a substantially disturbing costume party.
  • We try to get in one Toga Affair per annum.
  • The end of fall semester classes in December signals the approach of Grinching/Caroling Night, when all the Hoos down in Hooville gather for a screening of that Dr. Seuss classic How the Grinch Stole Christmas. Needless to say, all in attendence quickly learn the rules for Grinching, after which we go out caroling, (ed note: sometimes awakening sleeping Webbastards).
  • February sees the University community running for cover in anticipation of the annual Pep Band Banquet. Previously held in the Dome Room of the Rotunda, it has since been moved to various private facilities (usually hotels) to avoid more problems (and also because they wouldn't let us back). It is always followed by an extremely large and boisterous party, the likes of which are unparalleled during the rest of the year.
  • Political rallies - this past summer we performed at Democratic Delegate-nominee Mitch Van Yahres' nomination rally; fun times were had by all!
