Westmoreland Central School District proudly hosted its inaugural Waves of Sound Marching Band Show on Saturday, October 10, 2026, welcoming marching bands from across the region for an exciting evening of music, school spirit, and community pride!

The Pride of Westmoreland Marching Band welcomed visiting bands and spectators to Westmoreland Jr./Sr. High School for a memorable night celebrating the talent, dedication, and hard work of student musicians. The event marked an exciting milestone for the district and established a new opportunity to bring the marching band community together.

Westmoreland was thrilled to welcome seven visiting bands representing Syracuse City, RFA, Band of the North, Oswego, Mohonasen, New Hartford, and Liverpool for this special inaugural event.

The evening featured outstanding marching band performances and a performance of the National Anthem by the Westmoreland Select Choir. A special senior recognition also honored the Pride of Westmoreland Marching Band’s senior members for their contributions and dedication.

Guests enjoyed additional activities and treats throughout the evening, including a bake sale, Krispy Kreme donuts, Crumbl Cookies, Knuckleheads food, and raffle opportunities.

Westmoreland Central School District extends a heartfelt thank-you to the event sponsors, visiting bands, volunteers, families, and community members whose support helped make this inaugural event possible. A special thank-you goes to the students and staff who worked hard to bring this exciting event to life.

The first Waves of Sound Marching Band Show was a wonderful celebration of music, teamwork, and Bulldog pride. We look forward to building on this new tradition for years to come!
