Where was it that you first experienced the Pride of West Virginia Marching Band? <\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

In the football stadium, in front of 60,000 members of the Mountaineer nation? In your hometown? In the Macy\u2019s Thanksgiving Day Parade? Wherever you get to see and hear the beloved Pride of West Virginia, you know that the marching band often elicits tears, chills and leaves people in absolute awe.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

Today we\u2019re asking you to help us invest in current and future band members with a new practice facility that will keep our band among the nation\u2019s greatest\u2026 and we need your support! <\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

The Pride of West Virginia, comprised of students from all majors across the university, has spent the last two decades practicing in a parking lot. This causes multiple issues that stand between our band and performing at their best. You can help give them a superior practice facility that reflects the exceptional performances they deliver. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

Your support of the Pride Practice Facility Fund will go directly to building a new facility for our marching band. With our generous alumni and community coming together, we\u2019ll give our band a home they can call their own, impacting students\u2019 lives for generations to come! Your generosity will help build a home deserving of our band members\u2019 talent and hard work. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

Thank you for investing in the future of the WVU Mountaineer Marching Band.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n","email":"AnnualGiving@wvuf.org","other":"https:\/\/give.wvu.edu\/?n=21","contactContent":"
