The Marching Porters have a long tradition of excellence and is a source of pride to Lockport area communities. The band has appeared in many parades, both local and statewide, including the State Street Thanksgiving Day Parade, Disney Parades in both Florida and California, and the Von Stuben Day Parade featured in the hit film "Ferris Bueller's Day Off". Membership in the Porter Marching Band consists of members from the five concert bands and various auditioned individuals in the guard. The Marching Porters performs annually at all home football games, five to six parades, and four to five field competitions.
