Los Trancos Woods Community Marching Band
On January 1, 1960, several residents of Los Trancos Woods Circle formed the Los Trancos Woods Community Marching Band.[1] After their debut parade around "The Circle," they continued to participate in parades around the San Francisco Bay Area, growing in number through the years. We have won many awards for our performances in such events as the Redwood City, California 4th of July Parades, San Francisco St. Patrick's Day Parade, and the Castroville Artichoke Festival. We also play for many smaller town parades and civic events in the area.
The band is open to all, no auditions, whatever instrument you want to play, uniforms are your best idea of a marching band uniform (be creative, but legal.) There is a $5 annual membership dues for access to the band mailing list and music charts. We have an annual rehearsal at various locations and also monthly jam sessions (usually the first Sunday afternoon of the month) at the Alpine Inn [2]
