The UMass Marching Band participated in the 2024 Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. The weather was terrible, but the band was great (as always).
Jeremy was in the front row (!) second from their right playing trombone. I downloaded a bunch of videos that band parents had posted to the Facebook group and combined them into a mini “sizzle reel” of Jeremy walking by:

The day before was much better weather-wise, and the UMass Marching Band (along with the University of South Carolina band) performed at Pier 16 at the seaport in Brooklyn.
Finally, a few photos from our time in New York:
