We are the Montrose Marching Unit Alumni Band, a group of former members of the Montrose Area High School Marching Band, proudly coming together to celebrate our shared passion for music and performance. Under the direction of Dean Houck, our time in the marching band left a lasting impact, and now, we're honored to revive that spirit.

We’re excited to announce that we’ve been selected to participate in two major events: the 2026 4th of July Parade in Philadelphia, PA (held July 3rd) and the 4th of July Parade in our hometown of Montrose, PA.

With 150+ talented members, this incredible trip comes with big dreams and big costs.

Over the next several months, we are working hard to raise funds to cover:

Busing and transportation

Hotel accommodations

Meals for each band member

Parade entry fees

Instrument rental & equipment costs

And many more travel-related expenses!

Opportunities like this don’t come around often, and we are determined to make it happen, together. But we can’t do it without your support! We ask you to consider donating. No amount is too small and every dollar helps us get one step closer to Philly.

Help us represent our town of Montrose, PA, next July 3rd in Philadelphia, PA, as our Nation celebrates 250 years!! We are so grateful for the continued support and encouragement from our community! Thank you for cheering us on!
