“I continue to be humbled by the support that the band and other activities of the School of Performing Arts has received from alumni and friends.” – David Reynolds, Director of the School of Performing Arts
The Pride of the Dakotas Marching Band is dedicated to creating memorable experiences and building strong connections among our students.
Your support during One Day for STATE will help:
- Chicago Thanksgiving Day Parade: Help cover travel and other expenses for The Pride of the Dakotas to perform in the Chicago Thanksgiving Day Parade, giving students the chance to represent SDSU and share the Jackrabbit spirit on a national stage.
- Student Experience: Give band members the resources they need to participate in performances and activities that enrich their time at SDSU and create lasting memories.
- Representing SDSU: Help The Pride take its music, energy, and Jackrabbit pride beyond Brookings, connecting with audiences and showcasing SDSU across the country.
