HOMECOMING 2011 RECAP {PART 1}: THE MEET & GREET

After months and months of planning, the stage was finally set for Homecoming 2011. MTA members, Traci Wade-Bradford, Bryan Tribue and I, planned a 2-day celebration and formed an alumni band that performed with the Marching Tigers. See how it all came together.

THE MEET & GREET (Wednesday, October 26, 2011)

The biggest part of Marching Tiger Alumni as a whole, is giving back and supporting Mr. Redding and the Marching Tigers. The first of our Homecoming festivities was a Meet & Greet pizza party that we hosted for the Marching Tigers. After practice, the band played a quick jam session then were fed good Domino's pizza and were given some nice candy and cookie treats to go along with it. A good time was had by all. Thank you Traci Wade-Bradford, band parents, and alumni for pulling it all together.

Earlier that day, Jones held it's annual Homecoming parade. I got a snapshot of MTA Jamia Hampton, Corey Johnson, Dominick Carter and Darren Thompson before the parade began.
