Palatine High marching band resumes back-to-school tradition

After a year's hiatus due to COVID-19, the Palatine High School marching band on Thursday resumed its long-standing back-to-school tradition of parading through the neighborhood around the school on the last day of summer band camp.

The band members departed from the school at 4:45 p.m. and returned by a different route at 6:10 p.m.
