Granby Marching Comets
Granby High School is home to the only drum-corps style marching band in the city. Unlike the high-stepping bands of the other four public high schools, the Marching Comets compete in the Tournament of Bands. Under the direction of Mr. Steve Clendenin, the Comets have traveled as far as Scranton, Pennsylvania to compete in the Atlantic Coast Championships (ACCs) with field shows titled "The Mask of Zorro" and "La Corrida de Torres." (The Bullfight) In 2006, the Marching Comets earned the title of Group II ACC Invitational Class Champions with "La Corrida de Torres."

Famous quotes containing the words marching and/or comets:
“The Saints come,
as human as a mouth,
with a bag of God in their backs,
like a hunchback,
they come,
they come marching in.”

“I know
No answer to the children’s cry
Of echo’s answer and the man of frost
And ghostly comets over the raised fists.”
