In the News
We are thrilled to announce that the Towson University TIGER Marching Band has been accepted to perform in the 2009 Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York City!! Each year only a few bands from across the country are selected to perform in front of 2.5 million people on the street - and another 44 million television viewers - and we are extremely honored to be selected. Thank you to all our current members, past members, alumni, family, friends, Towson faculty/staff/administration, and all other supporters of the TIGER Marching Band. We could not have achieved this great accomplishment without your hard work and support.
