DescriptionAztec High School Marching Band marches in the State Fair Parade down Central Avenue. The band is led by a drum major in a tall white hat and a whistle in his mouth. He is missing half of his right arm. Behind him are female baton twirlers dressed in white dresses. One of the baton twirlers is carrying the Aztec High School Band banner. The marching band is marching behind the baton twirlers. They are wearing dark uniforms and dark hats. They all look to be carrying their instruments, not playing them. There are crowds of spectators along the sidewalk watching the parade.
