Outfit our ambassadors!

Temple’s Diamond Marching Band, the DMB, presents exciting and innovative contemporary shows at Temple athletic teams’ games during the fall semester. All 200+ members practice several hours a week for the many games and also other public appearances and activities. The large and diverse membership provides exciting opportunities for instrumentalists, color guard performers, and twirlers. Every member works to excite the crowds with every performance, and fuel the Owl spirit!

Since its inception as a 40-member football member band, the Diamond Marching Band has grown, and this academic year welcomed the largest DMB in history!

The band, which is frequently representing Temple in the public eye, needs more uniforms to continue its growth and to properly outfit current members. Help us continue to be the Pride of the Cherry and White by donating to our uniform fund!
