Mercer Island HS marching band heads to Pasadena for Rose Parade

SEATAC, Wash. -- The Mercer Island High School marching band headed for southern California to perform in the 2012 Rose Parade this weekend.

Band members left on two separate flights from Sea-Tac Airport Wednesday morning for Pasadena. Members have been practicing for weeks and say they're thrilled about their trip.

"We're looking forward to it. It's gonna be a real good time and it's gonna be a lot of work, but it will pay off in the end," said Sean Quinn, sophmore.

"This is huge for our band program. Everyone is really excited for this," said Alex Mesher, band president. "It has made our band program stronger than it has ever been before."

The Mercer Island High School marching band is the only band from Washington state in this weekend's Rose Parade.
