The Marching Virginians are set to host their 27th annual Hokies for the Hungry canned food drive.

The Marching Virginians kicked off band camp this week while also celebrating their 50th anniversary.

The Marching Virginians are conducting band camp and tryouts ahead of their first performance during the home-opener football game — where the Hokies will take on ODU.

Also cheering on the Hokies: the Marching Virginians.

The Virginia Tech Marching Virginians will be collecting the food items at the Hokie game on Saturday for their 26th Annual Hokies for the Hungry Food Drive.

Hokies for the Hungry has been a Virginia Tech tradition for more than 25 years.

“One can for every fan!” That is the goal of the Spirit of Tech this weekend at Virginia Tech’s home game. Band members will be collecting money and canned goods to help local people in need this holiday season.

The band is back together again and ready to march through Lane Stadium in Blacksburg!
