Has your marching unit been invited to play or already performed at Disneyland in their latest parade?
Just when you thought your season was over.
Several local schools in Riverside, among them Riverside North, and Riverside Poly are performing. Just think the extra chance to show how great your unit is.

Every year our band (Valencia High School, placentia) goes to Disneyland and spends the day there. Its a whole lot of fun and you get to play the music you grew to love and enjoy.

The recording session is so fun! When I did it, my school did some of the music from The Rocketeer. We played music from when the airplane crashes into the barn at the begining of the movie. After a couple rehearsals and a recording, we got to watch that part of the movie with us playing in the background.
Totally awesome. You'll enjoy it!

Hey BlueStarMom,
I'm from Riv. Poly and I just got back from there like an hour ago. It was fun, but those long walks through the back sides of the park were tiring. I think they forgot that we still had to march. I would also like to say that I think you guys played very well. It was fun.

I haven't marched in the Disneyland parade, but two years ago my band went to Disneyland. The Jazz Band performed at California Adventure, and everyone in the band did the recording session. It was a really fun day.

Where did they have you start? End?
I think the longest walk is from the Firehouse backstage to the dressing room/loading area. However, when RCC did it 2 weeks ago, we ended the parade on the other side of Main Street and walked back to the dressing/loading area via Tomorrowland, which ended up being a shorter walk I think.
I do remember one of the parades Ramona did, they had us start at the Fire Station and march to IASM. That was harsh, but the walk back after the parade was mega short
