Taylor Dunn and Joseph Pastorin, members of the Skyline High School Coyotes Marching Band in Mesa, Arizona, have earned the amazing opportunity to participate in the Macy’s Great American Marching Band.

These two decided that they wanted to audition for the parade and they went out and helped eachother film their auditions - and to their surprise they BOTH made it! You are looking at TWO members of Macys All American Marching Band. They will be performing with close to 200 kids from all over the United States - in the 100th ANNUAL MACYS THANSKGIVING DAY PARADE!!! They need your help!!

Joseph Pastorin (flute) - Band leadership, Flute/piccolo section leader, Honor band, Jazz band, Marching band

Taylor Dunn (trumpet) - Band leadership, Trumpet/mellophone section leader, 2025 show soloist, Honor band, Jazz band, Marching band

Costs for this opportunity is pretty high! Each band member needs between $2500-$3500 to make this trip! This covers, flights, hotel, uniforms (and some sightseeing!). These two are not only band mates but amazing friends so this is an exciting opportunity for the both of them to get out and share this amazing opportunity!

We would like to raise $7,500 to get these two to New York City for the 2026 100th Annual Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. All raised funds will be divided equally among the Two to help fund their trips, and if we go over, anything extra will be donated to our amazing local Marching Band - the Skyline Coyotes Marching Band in Mesa Arizona.

Any Donation is appreciated! These kids are amazing students, teens, musicians and friends. This is such a huge opportunity for them after years of hard work on their music/skills!
