This was an experience of a lifetime. Thank you to everyone that made this all possible. This was more then a group of people performing in a parade. It was an inspiration to many and a rejuvenation of passion in the hearts of everyone who participated. @NitschmannMS @SABD2022

Congratulations to @SABD2022 for winning the Rose Parade’s Showmanship Award yesterday! Barnhouse composer James Swearingen was one of five band directors also honored on the float - he rode in the parade, and Lisa Galvin wrote one of the arangements the directors' band played!

What. A. Day. So very thankful for this awesome opportunity! The 🌹parade was amazing and I finally got to spend some time with my #1 fan at the game this evening. (And FYI, that bottle of water at end of the parade was the best bottle of water ever!) @SFHSLions @CarranzaEK

Band Directors are selfless people who will often go above and beyond for their students. These people have been instrumental in the creation and execution of this project from the dream to the end of the parade. Thank you for what you do. We teach music. We teach life.
