The Yolo Community Band was founded in 2005 by music director and band leader Bobby Rogers. Rogers, a Woodland native, currently serves as the head of the music department at Pioneer High School in Woodland. The band performs 5 or 6 concerts annually and is supported by the Woodland Music Boosters.

The band, originally known as the Woodland Community Band, plays a wide range of musical styles including traditional and contemporary concert band arrangements, marches, popular songs and musicals, patriotic, and holiday selections.  

Annual concert events include a Spring Concert shared with the River City Concert Band; the Community Band Festival at Carmichael Park in Sacramento; the Winter’s Farmer’s Market; the Yolo County Fair in Woodland; the Yolo County Veteran’s Day Ceremony at the County Courthouse in Woodland; and a Winter Holiday Concert in December.

All musicians are welcome regardless of skill level. Our members range from high school students to senior citizens and we’re all in it for fun. Rehearsals are Wednesday evenings from 7:00 to 9:00 pm. In the Pioneer High School band room (on the North side of campus behind the basketball courts).

It is a band of all ages and all are welcome to join.  Current members come from Davis, Woodland, Dixon, Winters, Esparto, Yuba City and Sacramento.
