AMERICAN FORK, Utah (AP) - A Utah high school marching band will be among select company at the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York.

The American Fork High School band will join only five other high school bands and two college bands in the parade.

It’s the second time in seven years the 219-member band has been selected to participate.



Band director John Miller told Provo’s Daily Herald (https://bit.ly/1AE82m4 ) students are “excited and working very hard to represent (Utah) in the best manner possible.”

Plans call for band members to see various sights in New York, including Central Park and the American Museum of Natural History.
