About

The Marching 97 is proud to be one of the country’s only entirely student-run marching bands. Whether it be supporting the team from the stands or performing their latest halftime show, the Marching 97 always brings unrivaled levels of psyche!

Your donations enable the band to continue performing at its fullest capacity. In 2024, the Marching 97 reached a total membership of 102. The band is fortunate enough to provide all of its members with band-owned instruments and uniforms, both of which require a fair deal of upkeep. Your donations would help the 97 continue to support its growing population!

This past year, the Lehigh football team had an incredible season, which included appearances in the FCS playoffs! The band was able to travel to Richmond in order to support the team in the first round; however, this additional performance was outside the band’s typical budgeting. As the football team continues their upward momentum, your donation would enable the Marching 97 to continue their support of the football team, no matter where they may end up!
