An Impact that Reverberates ft. Pride of the Mountains

Few things about WCU’s Pride of the Mountains marching band fly under the radar—a 500-member ensemble is hard to miss, after all. However, Western’s marching band has changed leadership and education in our region in a way that few other organizations at WCU or anywhere in the system can lay claim to. Join us this Western Wednesday as we learn about the band’s impact off of the field, including its plans to bring the Pride of the Mountains across the pond. We’ll hear from POTM director Jack Eaddy and staff, current students, and local band director and POTM alumnus Alex Larsen ’17.
