Indoor Show & Chicken Dinner
Our annual Indoor Marching Show & Chicken Dinner is a favorite for students, the LHS band family, alumni and the community. It’s a great way to celebrate a marching band season of hard work, achievements and fun. Come join us for this event to hear and see our fabulous performers. Plus, we’ve got more than music and a show in store for you. This event is also a fundraiser for the Band Parent Association, our booster club supporting LHS band programs.
In 2024, we have two dates for this event: the evening of Friday, November 15 and midday Saturday, November 16. See the event details for each date below or select a button jump to a specific part of each event.

​For the first time, we are offering an online silent auction. It is now open for bidding through a website called GalaBid. The auction will be open until the beginning of the indoor show on Sat., November 16. Some items are for standard silent auction bidding. There are also options for buy it now and donations to the BPA.
Items will also be on display for bidding at LHS during the events, but we encourage you to bid on your favorite items in advance! Wi-Fi in the building can be spotty, and plus you can browse everything online and make your bids in advance. People who aren't able to come to the silent auction can also bid. Items can also be browsed in person during the events:
