To our WVU Band Alumni:

We're excited to announce the 2026 membership year launch. The Board approved the 2026 budget and membership dues on January 11, 2026. Please be sure to review the details.

We have some exciting events being planned for our members in 2026! Visit our website and regularly review our Event Calendar to stay up-to-date on all of the organizational activities this year.

For 2026, we offer five membership levels and membership prices remain unchanged from last year:

• Pep Band: $10 plus the purchase of the official Navy Pep Band T-shirt ($29.95 Merchandise Store). This level is for those interested in pep band performances only. It does not include voting rights or participation in member events, such as homecoming.
• Hail West: Free for first-year members who participated in their final season with The Pride during the fall of 2025. Includes pep band events, voting rights, membership meetings and committee participation, exclusive content, and a name badge with your membership level at homecoming.
• Fight Mountaineers: $50/year ($40 if paid by March 31). Includes pep band events, voting rights, membership meetings and committee participation, exclusive content, and a name badge with your membership level at homecoming.
• Country Roads: $100/year. Includes Fight Mountaineers benefits, $20 merchandise refund, member event discounts, early homecoming registration, and a $10 donation to Pride Fundraising.
• Don & Kaye Jean Wilcox: $150/year for two members at the same address. Includes Country Roads benefits for one member and Fight Mountaineers for the second, plus special couples packages.

For details, see our member benefits page. A Q&A session about the membership levels is coming soon. To join and pay dues, please click here. Login required for payment access.

Membership dues cover our core operating expenses, such as storage, insurance, IT services, accounting, and office supplies. As a reminder, event fees, like those collected for homecoming, are used exclusively for event-related member costs.

You can pay dues electronically or by check (see mailing address below). For questions about your membership, contact info@wvualumniband.org; for payment issues, reach out to the Bursar at TheresaSmith@wvualumniband.org.

We look forward to a great year with the WVU Alumni Band and hope to see you at upcoming events! If you have questions, ideas, or want to get involved, connect with any Board or committee member (listed under “About Us” > “Board of Directors” or “Committees” on our website).
