Welcome to the official home of the Laker Marching Band. The Laker Marching Band is one of the most dedicated, visible, and energetic organizations at Grand Valley State University. The band works hard on and off the field to spread Laker pride and school spirit at every event. Fans welcome the powerful performances, and members love being involved with something great.
We hope the information here will prove informative for all Laker Marching Band members of the past, present and future. The media page contains the sights and sounds of what it's like to be a member of this energetic group. Our students have a great time on and off the field and develop friendships that will last a lifetime.
Many prospective students have a lot of the same questions when thinking about joining the Laker Marching Band. If you have any questions, check out our frequently asked questions page. We welcome your questions concerning any of our bands here at GVSU. We hope that you will be part of our proud tradition and exciting future! We think you will like what you find! Go Lakers!
