The RFH Marching Bulldogs are musicians and color guard members who perform in the stands and on the field at all home and away football games in September, October, and November.  The band also competes on weekends in September and October. The color guard section of the band involves moving to music, performance skills, and equipment skills. Color guard does not require prior experience; we will teach you how to spin a flag.  Likewise, although musicians typically need some prior musical experience, we will teach you how to march.

Marching band is active July-November each year.  Registration for the fall season starts the spring before and is typically due June 1st, although we accept later registration on a case-by-case basis when we have open spots.  If you are not a current member, reach out to Miss Marino or visit https://sites.google.com/rumsonfairhaven.org/rfhmarchingbulldogs/home to make sure you receive registration information.
