The Notre Dame Band is proud to showcase its talented student musicians as part of the "CBS Hawaii Five-O Marching Mania" contest. The contest invites fans to select the college band that has performed the best rendition of the theme from Hawaii Five-O. The winning band will receive $25,000! Should Notre Dame be chosen as the winner that money would be used to support ongoing community service and outreach programs that ND Band members engage in each week. These programs assist youth in underserved areas of our local community and nationally; giving many young people the opportunity to make music.
Voting is open and you can vote once each day through the close of the contest on October 11th!
