Fiesta San Antonio
The OMTAAMB was honored to march in the Fiesta Flambeau Parade in 2004.  It was our second trip to San Antonio and we hope to go back many more times.


The Alamo City Community Marching Band of San Antonio, Texas. Jon Sanchez, San Antonio's ambassador to the OMTAAMB, is part of this relatively new adult marching band.


The Awesome Original Second Time Arounders Marching Band of St.Petersburg, Florida. The Rounders were the inspiration for the formation of OMTAAMB. The two bands have played together on several occasions, most recently at the 1998 Fiesta in San Antonio.


Marching. COM

Marching.com was founded in 1996 as a source of information about marching band events. Over time the site has grown to include an extensive listing of links to marching bands and a resource directory of services and supplies useful to marching units.
