Keeping the Goin' Band Goin' Since 1987

The Goin' Band Association

Our organization exists to provide support and resources to improve the quality and success of the Texas Tech University Band.

EST.1987

From the earliest days of the Tech Band Alumni Association, our mission has remained the same: to provide support and resources to improve the quality and success of the Texas Tech University’s Goin’ Band from Raiderland.

​

Originally, our organization was founded as a group of die-hard Tech Band alumni who wished to stay in contact with one another and to establish a scholarship endowment for future students wishing to join the largest and oldest student organization on campus.

​

Since that time, we have expanded our reach to include family, friends, and fans of the Goin’ Band, but our goals and purposes remain the same – to support the students any way that we can.

​

Our hope is to give back to the organization that gave us so much so that the Goin’ Band will continue to entertain the crowds each week during the games and other performances each year.
