#HFMarchingVikings #WeAreHF

Last weekend, the @HFHS59 Marching Vikings played @hiddengemhalf runners through mile 5 on the HF campus 🎶 🏃🏽‍♀️ 🏃🏽‍♂️

Often cited as one of Hidden Gem runners’ favorite race spots, the band laid it all out for them throughout the morning, playing a variety of hype songs, boosting spirits, and cheering on their friends, neighbors, and teachers (!) on the course.

Thanks to our student musicians and staff for waking up early to support the community ❤️🤍
