The Gainesville Community Band was founded in 1974 with eleven members. In 1978, the Gainesville City Commission passed a resolution designating the GCB as the Official Community Band of Gainesville. It is an all-volunteer, non-profit organization made up of teachers, professors, scientists, business professionals, students, physicians, contractors, realtors, tradespersons, and retirees. It is conducted by R. Gary Langford, Professor of Music Emeritus at the University of Florida.
Made For More is a faith-based non-profit organization that mentors and inspires student-athletes. We accomplish this through teachings, mentorship, workshops, camps, exposure trips, and international and local community involvement.
