Founded by Harrison Cheng and fellow high school friends on July 4th, 2004, Tri-City Band Corps has continued to flourish for over 10 years. In that time, TBC has grown from fewer than 10 members to over 300. To this day, TBC is run by a core group of high school officers and strives to equip aspiring students with essential communication skills, leadership opportunities, and a chance to work with
other students in a professional business environment. In addition to this, TBC also offers students chances to make new friends and fulfill their high-school service hour requirements by participating in various parades such as the Fremont 4th of July Parade, the Salinas Colmo Rodeo Parade, the Festival of India Parade, and the Niles Festival of Lights Parade. Tri-City Band Corps is the only free-to-join marching band in Fremont outside of the school system and is a wonderful option for students who wish to have this type of performance opportunity.
