ROCKFORD (WKZO AM/FM) — A West Michigan band will be getting some national exposure this week, and a Big Apple adventure to go along with it.
The Rockford High School marching band will march in this year’s Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York City, along with all the big balloons and celebrities.
Rockford got the invitation in early 2016 and they have been raising money, practicing and getting ready ever since.
The Rockford band is one of only ten marching units invited to participate in this year’s parade.
The Community scheduled a send-off celebration at the high School for this weekend.
