Fairview's marching program is supported by a host of professional marching band instructors, as well as parent volunteers. In 2006, the Fairview Marching Band placed fourth in the state marching band competition, and first in the Northern Regional competition. In 2007, Fairview was 7th in the state 5A competition. Marching students are required to spend time outside of school preparing for marching competitions. During the marching season, students spend about 300 hours outside of regular school hours practicing for competitions.

Competitions and Trips FMK usually competes in 5 competitions during the Fall and performs at every home football game. The competitions take place mid-September to late October. The marching band goes to Disney World once every four years and on a shorter trip every two years. The band went to Disney World in December of 2006, so the school year trip of 2007-2008 is not a trip year. FMK also marches in the Lights of December Parade in Boulder every year.

 
The Fairview Marching Knights are recruiting for Color Guard members for the fall of 2008!

The Color Guard is the Visual Performance part of the marching band. There is a 2 day orientation Mini Band Camp in June (the 1st week after school is out) and a 9 day Band Camp in August (just before school starts) where you learn marching technique, music for the show, and the color guard routine for the show. The marching season is from August through October and during this time you are enrolled in Color Guard class and attend practice 3 times a week to prepare for competitions. The color guard performs with the marching band at all of the home football games and they compete in at least 5 competitions that end with the State Marching Championship. If you are an incoming freshman, being in the band is a great way to meet other FHS students before school even begins!!! If you are interested in PERFORMING, MUSIC, DANCE, SPINNING FLAGS and/or OTHER OBJECTS, Color Guard is for you! 

 Parent Volunteers

The FMK program cannot be successful without parental involvement and help.  We call ourselves, FBBO, the Fairview Band Boosters Organization.
