San Marcos High School (SMHS) Band Boosters will host a Royals Band Block Party and Fundraiser, 4-6 p.m. Thursday, May 25 on the Turnpike Plaza Patio, 199 S. Turnpike Road, Santa Barbara (across the street from San Marcos High School).
Participating eateries include Dave’s Dogs, Dave’s Drip House, and Jersey Mike’s Subs, with 15% of all sales from our guests all day (pick-up and dine-in included) benefiting the San Marcos High School Instrumental Music Program.
Guests should mention SMHS Band or show the event flyer when ordering in person at all three restaurants and use code SMHB15 when using the Jersey Mike’s app.
This family friendly event is free to attend event and will feature end-of-the-year performances from the student musicians in the Royal’s Guard, DrumLine, and Jazz Ensemble.
To kick off the event, the Royals Band will march up Hollister Avenue from the SMHS theater to Turnpike Plaza, with DrumLine performing along the route.
“We are all super excited for this block party as a way to celebrate the end of a great year,” said Michael Kiyoi, Instrumental Music director for San Marcos High. “It’s a way of not only showcasing the amazing talent of our students, but also showing our appreciation to these local businesses who generously support us throughout the year.”
SMHS Band performs throughout Southern California and has a rigorous — and expensive — travel schedule. Proceeds from the block party event will support the San Marcos High School Band and help to defray the competition costs.
