The Seminole Ridge High School competitive marching band, the Winged Regiment, is made of 75 students who are dedicated to their craft.
The Winged Regiment has been working hard for months preparing its competitive marching band show, and the hard work has paid off. The Winged Regiment recently attended the Florida Bandmasters Association Marching Performance Assessment and scored straight superiors in all categories, including music, general effect, percussion and auxiliary.
However, the season is far from over. The competitive band season runs through November with the final competition being the state championships in Tampa. Last year, the Winged Regiment won the state championship in its class and is looking forward to defending that title this year.
This year’s show, “The Architect,” is filled with great music and eye-catching visuals. Wondering if you will have a chance to see this band in action? Here is your chance. The band will host a free community performance on Thursday, Nov. 19 at 7 p.m. at the SRHS football stadium. The Winged Regiment will perform the show one last time before the band students leave for state competition the following day.
The band’s motto is “One Band, One Family,” and you see that in everything that the Winged Regiment does. The students work hard to be successful in all of their musical endeavors, on and off the field. They are continuously there for each other, as well as the community. Throughout the school year they attend football games, competitions and community events.
This program runs solely on fundraising and donations. If you would like to help the students in achieving their goals, donations can be sent to: Seminole Ridge Hawk Band, 4601 Seminole Pratt Whitney Rd., Loxahatchee, FL 33470.
