Huntington Blue Devils Marching Band Shines in Season Debut

The Huntington Blue Devils Marching Band (HBDMB) kicked off its 2026 season in spectacular fashion, premiering its new production during the first halftime show of the year. The students delivered an incredible performance, setting the tone for a memorable season ahead.

But that was just the beginning of an action-packed weekend.

Earlier that same day, the band participated in the annual Huntington Unity Day Parade, where they once again impressed with their energy, precision, and pride. Their performance in the parade was a testament to the hard work and dedication they have poured into rehearsals since the summer, and they performed with confidence and professionalism, representing Huntington with distinction. This was a perfect premier to their first upcoming competition of the 2026 season at Brentwood.

Adding to the excitement of Saturday's halftime show, the High Steppers took the field for their first performance of the season as well. They opened the halftime program with an outstanding routine before the marching band took the field, a wonderful showcase of the talent and spirit within our Huntington community.

Dr. Robert Wottawa shared his pride in the students' performance: "What an amazing way to start off our season! The weather was perfect for the Unity Parade, and the halftime show demonstrated the hard work and perseverance required for an all-day showcase. We are very proud of our students, teachers, staff, and our Band Parents Association of Huntington."

Congratulations to our students, staff, and families on an incredible opening weekend. We are so proud of all that you have accomplished and we cannot wait to see where this season takes you.

Here's to an unforgettable 2026 season!
