Alumni - History Page Archive
We are (slowly) accumulating materials to post on our History Page. Our current project is collecting, scanning, and posting old concert programs.
If you have old programs that you would like to share - please scan and e-mail them to samohibandwebmaster@yahoo.com.
If you have other materials you think friends and alumni may be interested in - please let us know! Santa Monica has one of the oldest high school bands west of the Rockies. It is great when we can share that history!
Indoor Drumline & Winter Gaurd
As the Marching Band Season concludes, our Percussionists and Color Guard sections are preparing for their winter competition season. They will prepare brand new shows as they continue movement training and study of the percussive arts!
