The Marching Pride had a wonderful weekend trip at Chicago! A few highlights from the trip include seeing Hamilton on Friday, getting to play in the snow Saturday morning, marching in the cold down Michigan Ave., and getting to visit the top of the Willis/Sears Tower! Our students did an amazing job representing Palmetto Ridge High School and had a great performance! We’d especially like to thank our incredible parent chaperones and truck crew! We’re so lucky to have so many hardworking and dedicated parents who genuinely care for the students in our program. Thank you for supporting the Marching Pride! Go Palmetto!!!!
