2023 Munchkin Night!

Green Hope High School Football Stadium
Green Hope Falcons vs Cary High Imps
Green Hope Marching Band invites all interested 8th-11th grade students to join them at the October 6th Football Game. You'll take part in the band's afternoon rehearsal, have pizza dinner together, and then march alongside the Band to the stadium to play the Star-Spangled Banner on the field. During the game you'll sit with the Band and join in as they play stands tunes.
This is always a popular night, and the marching band students can’t wait to show other kids what Green Hope Marching Band is all about! See the schedule below for details.
Unless you're a DDMS band member, please make sure to fill out the Google Form Signup so that we can pair you with a high school marcher. (If you're a DDMS band member, Ms Burrell already has you on her list.)
Calling all munchkin parents! Come meet current band parents 5:45-6:15 pm at the tailgate canopy in the parking lot, and get the inside scoop on what GH Band is all about. Band parents will gladly answer any questions you may have! And don't worry, we'll be sure to walk you to the stadium in time to see all the events first hand!
Please note: To watch, you will have to buy a ticket to the football game. Please purchase your football tickets in advance. Tickets will NOT be available at the stadium entrance and must be purchased online and shown at the door. Concessions will also be available for purchase with a credit card, PayPal, or Venmo (no cash).
