USF’s 4th Annual “HOT Day”

The University of South Florida’s “HOT Day” will be taking place on Saturday, September 10, 2011. Students who participate in “HOT Day” will rehearse with the USF Herd of Thunder Marching Band, watch the USF vs. Ball State, and perform with the USF Herd of Thunder Marching Band and 1,000 other high school students from across the state!

The price to participate will be $30.00-$40.00 per person. We’ll determine the actual price in the next few weeks. This price will include:

  1. Ticket for USF vs. Ball State
  2. “HOT Day” T-shirt
  3. Lunch
  4. Transportation to and from “HOT Day”

If you are planning to participate in this event we need your trip money by August 22, 2011 (the first day of school). You can pay it anytime during the summer, or during next year’s band camp. We are getting this information out early, because participation is on a first come, first serve basis. Once the 1,000 tickets are out, they are out.

Here is the video from last year’s “HOT Day”.
