Make new friends from other schools: The Cadet Regiment offers junior high school students the unparalleled opportunity to meet music students from across the Tri-City area! During rehearsals and parades, participants will learn to work as a team and create lasting friendships as they bond during these fulfilling activities.
Perform to Improve: TBC Cadet Regiment is the growing foundation for both high school marching bands and our renowned Royal Regiment. As the only junior high marching band in the Tri-City area, the Cadet Regiment welcomes junior high students who are interested in joining the marching band in the future.
Get a head start in high school: Learn marching fundamentals and gain performance experience during summer parades! Students will train in marching basics, preparing them for high school marching band and strengthening our local high school marching groups.
Leadership Opportunities: Student officers run just about everything in TBC and practice leadership skills frequently. Cadets who have successfully finished a parade season with us can apply for a Leadership Position in our Cadet Leadership Team. This team will work alongside our staff to help run rehearsals as well as provide input on Cadet Regiment events. When Cadet Regiment participants graduate and go on to join the high school groups, they’ll be able to enter high school as officers.
Community Service (for high school students): High school students have the chance to participate with the Cadet Regiment by training and mentoring the junior high participants. By volunteering their time teaching and helping out, these students earn service hours, potentially qualify for some of TBC’s service learning awards, and contribute back to the community!
