"A band is not proud because it performs well; it performs well because it is proud" -George Parks
Northside High School Patriot Marching Band
The marching band at Northside High School is known as the NHS Patriot Marching Band and is an extracurricular organization which meets after school in the fall. The Marching Band consists of wind and percussion musicians as well as members of the color guard. Membership is open to all Northside HS students. The NHS Patriot Marching Band rehearses 6-8 hours a week to perform at all home football games, some away games, and competitions. In addition to half-time performances at football games, the marching band represents NHS in parades all across Columbus. Auditions will be held in the Spring for any interested members for Drumline, Color Guard, and Drum Major. All players will sign up in the Spring to reserve your spot in the field show.
