Homecoming Parade

Holt Voted Best Marching Band in St Louis!!

The St. Louis Magazine, stlmag.com, featured an article in their March issue entitled, “Where Did You Go to High School?”  From most beautiful campus to biggest sports rivalry, readers were asked to vote for their favorite school each week.  Last week, the question was: Best Marching Band.  Several St. Louis area schools were listed, but Wentzville Holt was not among them.  So, many students, family, and friends of the Holt Band wrote in their vote for the “Other” category.  Thanks to all of their support, the Wentzville Holt Indian Band was voted Best Marching Band!  Check out the results to this poll and others here:

Fiesta!

The 2010edition of the Wentzville Holt Indian Band was superb. Our field show is entitled “Fiesta!” and has been spectacular.  The show is based upon Missouri composer H. Owen Reed’s “La Fiesta Mexicana” uses portions of all three movements of the piece including “Prelude and Aztec Dance”, “Mass”, and “Carnival”. It was a group effort between the students, staff, and parents to make this season a success…thanks to all!
