Organization's History

The original Denver Junior Police Band began in 1937. For 50 years, the band provided music instruction, leadership training, discipline and performance opportunities for young men. This fine organization was dissolved in 1986. Through the combined efforts of Old Chicago Restaurants, Denver Police Protective Association, Denver Police Department, Denver Public Schools and the Mayor's Office of Art, Culture & Film, the Denver Junior Police Band was reestablished in Oct. 1994. Determined to uphold the strong traditions established by the original band, the new band provides consistent, high quality music instruction and opportunities for our members, male and female, young and old, and the community. In 2003 we changed our name to the Mile High Community Band to reflect what we are now.
