The New Haven Mighty Marching Bulldogs recently competed in a newly created ISSMA (Indiana State School Music Association) marching band class called Scholastic Class. It is designed for smaller bands. The Bulldog marching band has 21 instrumentalists and 7 guard members. Mr. Todd Caffee is the Band Director.
On Saturday, October 12, the band competed in the preliminary contest held at Homestead High School. The Bulldogs scored high enough to advance to the state finals that will be held at Lawrence Central High School on October 26th. The band will perform at 6:09 p.m. with the other 15 bands that qualified in the “A” division statewide. Division A is for schools with 125 or fewer band members with school enrollment 976 or larger.
The last time a band from New Haven advanced to state was in 1977.
