FINAL UT CLUB: Wednesday, November 25

We are up to our final UT Club pep rally for this season on Wednesday, November 25th.

We need to be there by 6:15pm so we can be ready to play at 6:30pm.  

If you still don't know where the UT Club is, it is located inside the stadium and the entrance is on the East side of the Stadium.  Take the elevator to the 7th floor.  They provide us with appetizers and drinks.   

There is parking available in the garage across from the stadium beside the soccer field.  If there is an attendant tell them you are going to the UT Club.  The price last year for the UT Club was $3.00.  If there is no attendant get a ticket and the UT Club has been validating them.

Please contact George Moxley (utband1@gmail.com) if you can help with this event!

Board of Trustees Fall Report


The LHAB Board of Trustees job is to manage your generous donations and give out scholarships.  In other words, "take it in, hand it out, don't lose any." 


We meet quarterly at Moton Crockett's office to review our investments with Morgan Stanley and we work closely with LHB staff and LHAB officers. Our big goal this year is to streamline the scholarship application process and to find ways to showcase our wonderful student scholarship winners. 

Your BOT is Kent Kostka, Donna Beth McCormick, Suzan Nyfeler, Bryan Penn, and Cathy Sorsby.
Hook 'Em!

Fall Update: Letter from the President

Howdy LHAB Friends and Fellows!

It has been a quick two months since we met here in Austin for our 2015 Alumni Band Day weekend.  Your officers have been enthusiastically working on ideas and improvements for 2016, while continuing to support local activities and fostering an even greater connection with the current student members of LHB.  Dr. Hanna has reached out to us and is demonstrating his desire to help us become more personally connected to the current students in LHB.  

Your officers are looking forward to a complete re-vamp of our website that will include new enhancements.  In addition, we have heard your requests for new t-shirts and other items, and are taking steps now to have some new merchandise ready before next Band Day.  We are interested in ideas for new shirts, caps, or other merchandise, so feel free to contact me with your suggestions or desires.  

The Longhorn Band continues to perform creative and exciting halftime shows and represents the University with nothing but class.  

Most exciting is the news that the Longhorn Band Legacy Fund (LHBLF) is now launched. You will be receiving more detailed information about the LHBLF in the near future.  I ask you to think about supporting this fund at whatever level you are able.  You will be helping the LHB to continue to be the BEST college band that it has always been and to provide future students with the same awesome experiences that we all enjoyed in our years as students in the LHB.

Your officers are very interested in your ideas.  Please contact us with any thoughts that may positively affect our already great organization.

I wish each of you a Blessed & Happy Thanksgiving,
A Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and Happy New Year 2016!

Cheers and Hook ‘Em!
Jo Lyn Peters
