updates & News
brand new uniforms!
The first proof of our new Somersworth High School Marching Band uniforms is IN! Check it out to the left!
Top Left - NEW Uniforms (2023) featuring a modern design & Hilltopper Claw marks to align with our football team
Top Right - Old Hilltoppers Uniform (circa 1979), designed by Dr. Hugh Tully. That's a pretty groovy collar!
Below - A variety of photos of all our different uniforms over the years! These include the uniforms from 1979, uniforms from the mid-2000s that were donated from Lewiston, Maine, and the Marshwood uniforms we have worn since our combining in 2021.
We are so excited to be wearing these uniforms starting next year, and cannot thank the school district enough for their support in making them happen!
brand new instruments!
We have been incredibly fortunate this year to receive a Title Grant to purchase several new instruments for our program! These instruments are allowing us to perform music we wouldn't have been able to, and introducing students to the best quality of equipment we are able to! We cannot thank Susan Blair, our Title Director of Grants, who made this happen! Photos are below!
