High School juniors and seniors are invited to make plans now to join the YSU Basketball Pep Band on Saturday, Feb. 16 to JAM THE GYM! All high school juniors and seniors are invited to play with the YSU Pep Band as the Men's Basketball team takes on the Green Bay Phoenix.

Registration for JAM THE GYM! is simple. Visit http://ysubands.org/marching_pride and click on the JAM THE GYM! registration link. Students will complete a brief questionnaire and find a detailed schedule and instructions. Completion of the registration form will also initiate correspondence to the student regarding event details.
A professional development certification (two hours) is available for directors who wish to attend and bring a group of students. Feel free to bring an instrument if you would like to perform with your students and the YSU Pep Band. All directors will also receive a long-sleeve YSU Pep Band t-shirt and pizza dinner (send t-shirt size via email).
The start of the spring semester can be hectic as you prepare for solo and ensemble contests and festivals. We hope this event provides a fun and rewarding outlet for your students, and we look forward to hosting you at YSU on Feb. 16.
