Cheers! A reprise from 2016 in honor of a different kind of season during which, according to RFH posts, the band plays on …

It’s that time of the year. It’s football season — a pandemic season, at that. And that means it’s also time for the RFH Marching Band to play the field, too. They’ve been talking about practice on Twitter and they’re taking their marching orders well.

The band plays on at every football game. The band will play and march on … the field for those home games in a different, distanced era.

To honor the band’s part in the game, the Retro Pic of the Day offers a glimpse back to the RFH Marching Band of the 1970s.

It seems to have been, as with the other music programs, a lot bigger back then.

Recognize anyone? They were marching to the beat of which drummers and formation? Remember? Score.
