Band Travel


Each year, the entire RHS Band Program is involved in some type of performance experience outside of the Village of Ridgewood.  During each student's four year band experience, he or she can expect to participate in an extended major concert / clinic tour, a weekend concert / clinic tour, and two regional day trips.  For the past twelve years, our major tour destination has been Southern California, where our bands have performed at such venues as Disneyland, Universal Studios, Steamer's Jazz Club, and Catalina's of Hollywood, with clinics at the University of Southern California, San Diego State University, and California State University at Northridge.  Weekend tours have included such destinations as Boston, Baltimore, and Washington, DC.  Day trips often include performances in New York City.

Co-Curricular Trips
Separate trips may be planned which are specifically related to co-curricular groups (i.e., marching band, jazz ensemble, winterguard, etc.). These trips are planned by the activities' advisors and must be approved by the Board of Education.
