The 200-member Katy High School Tigers Marching Band and Trash Can Band kicked off their first-ever Roar Tour at Firethorne last Saturday morning, delighting homeowners with such musical requests as “Awesome Song” and “North Shore.” The band played in exchange for donations made to the marching band to purchase band instruments for the Katy High students.

“We are making plans for next year already and very much looking forward to a return to Firethorne,” says Davis, noting the entire Tigers Band Roar Tour raised $3,500 in its initial effort.

The ROAR TOUR began at the Firethorne Visitor Center, 28100 N. Firethorne Rd., and continued throughout Firethorne, stopping to play for homeowners and streets that donated to the fundraising project. Individuals or groups purchased three songs for $100. Contributions were collected along the Firethorne route.
