Fire of the Carolinas Marching Band
Welcome to the home of the Elon University “Fire of the Carolinas” Marching Band! As the “Soundtrack of the Phoenix,” our mission is to entertain Phoenix fans and support our teams and have a great time in the process! GO PHOENIX!
The “Fire of the Carolinas” marching band is a contemporary college marching band that performs three to four high-energy, entertainment-focused shows each year (plus pregame and stands performances). The band has a close-knit, family atmosphere that is a blast to be a part of. In addition, we perform during the games in the stands and at various athletic and university events around campus. The band rehearses twice a week, so the time commitment is minimal and easily manageable (no more than a normal two-day-a-week class).
Everyone in the band receives a small scholarship just for participating. The scholarship begins at $500 and increases each year you are in the band up to $1,000.
