Please share this information with all FIUMB Alumni!

I have attached the FIUMB schedule for the day. Alumni are all welcomed to join us for every event whether you are going to play an instrument or not. Please come and celebrate our history. I recommend that you register for Roar Lounge, but I do have game tickets and some extra credentials for the game.

Looking forward to seeing you all!

Hello All,

Things are shaping up for the 20th Anniversary Celebration of the FIUMB! If you are interested in playing in the stands with us, please visit our website: bands.fiu.edu, under the members tab/Internal music. There are pdf.'s of all of the stand music that we are currently using.

We only have a small inventory of extra instruments, so it would be best if you have your own. We are willing to try and check out something of ours if absolutely necessary.

More to follow....please make sure that you respond to the webforms so that we can make arrangements.
