| The Lane Tech Marching Band Where Tradition Marches On ... |
Days Gone By
| The Lane Tech Marching Band The Marching Band has been a tradition at Lane Tech for decades. Whether they were performing for Bozo the Clown, Marching the downtown streets of Chicago or dressing up like the Blues Brothers for "Soul Man", Lane's Marching Band has seen it all. Our Marching Band is comprised of all our band members except beginners. This includes all Symphonic, Concert and Jazz Band members. Although marching & pep band music is given out in May, a one week Marching Band Camp is held in August to pull our entire show together before the start of school. Marching Band performs their routines at football games and special events when requested. The Marching Band performs at various parades each year including the "Roscoe Village Parade" and also as a pep band at both select football and basketball games. Remember, when you are part of Lane's Band Program, you are part of a 100 year tradition!!!! |

| Marching Band Camp 2008 All Symphonic, Concert & Jazz Band Students must attend a mandatory 1 week Marching Band Camp at Lane usually held in August to prepare for the upcoming marching season. Music and Drill Charts are passed out prior to the summer to give students a chance to learn the music and the formations. Below are a few memories of Marching Band Camp 2008 |

| After working on the basics and fundamentals on our practice field, we begin to learn the new drill charts for the season. Once the general idea is down, we move it to the stadium where the march will be performed in October. |
| We finished up the last day of marching band camp in Lane's Stadium with temps in the mid 90's and played our last note just before the rain hit ... it was a great week! |
