5. Cache Valley Good Time Band
It all began last May when Alan picked up a used tuba from the classifieds. He quickly realized that playing alone was no fun, so he started a band. Yep, simple as that! In the six months since, the Cache Valley Good Times Marching Band has grown steadily, gaining people who love to play great music and have a great time doing it (it’s right in the name, after all).
