It has been INCREDIBLE! Check out the pics and be sure to check out the London Recap Video!

From the great performance by our band to the opportunity to see all of our friends from the area bands as well as getting to see the FSU Marching Chiefs UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL! It was a wonderful day! So proud of our students and their overall day on Saturday! We are blessed!

Now, it is time for HoCo! Go Big Blue! #iegyb

2025-2026 Band Fair Share Payment Link Is NOW AVAILABLE! 

Please visit this link to begin paying for this part of our membership experience. The Blue Darter Band has fronted a great deal of the funds necessary to start the year and now that we have our payment system up and running we need to recuperate the funding needed to continue our operations as a band family. Please click the link below to take care of this as soon as possible. Note, if you are travelling with us to London, you will not see this on your account as this is already built into your travel fees.
