My name is Calvin Torregano, and I am the current President of the Brandon Bulldog Band Boosters.Over the past seven years, my wife Shannon and I have been deeply involved in supporting our outstanding band program, both as parents and as dedicated volunteers. 

My oldest daughter, Calleigh, was a proud band member for seven years, playing the flute and graduated with the Class of 2024. My youngest daughter Katie,is in her junior year and plays the clarinet.  Seeing the impact of this program on both of my daughters has deepened my appreciation for the role the band plays in shaping students’ confidence, discipline, and sense of community. 

Hey, I am Erin Moore, the current Vice President of the Brandon Bulldog Boosters. Last year I was the middle school rep and I enjoyed working with the boosters so much. I work at EyeCare Professionals as a tech and a scrub tech.  

 I am married to Bradley Moore and have a son, Christian Hogan, he is in percussion. When you need to find me look for the crazy band mom dancing around with the band. I love everything band. If you need anything please reach out to me or find me dancing around the drum line! 

James Chaisson is a long-time member of the Brandon Band Booster Club executive board and has served as Treasurer in various capacities for the past three years. He brings more than 23 years of experience as a Project Manager with Suncoast Infrastructure in Florence, where he is responsible for estimating, budgeting, and managing complex construction projects—skills that translate well to overseeing the Booster Club’s financial operations. 

James and his wife, Betsy, a fourth-grade teacher at Brandon Elementary with 15 years in RCSD, have one child in the band program. Their daughter, Meredyth, is a junior, serves as one of the Drum Majors, and plays French horn. James is committed to supporting Mr. Mullen and the band staff by building on recent successes and continuing to strengthen the Booster Club’s operations to provide students with the best and most rewarding band experience possible. 

Scott is an Account Manager with Sysco Foodservice by day, but a dedicated band supporter by night! He and his wife, Jennifer, are the proud parents of two talented brass players: Matthew, a sophomore trombone player, and Miles, who is currently taking the field with the Mississippi State University Maroon Band on the tuba. 

When he isn’t cheering from the stands, in concession, or hauling instruments, Scott is at home in the company of the family's two dogs: Ellie, their Great Dane, and Marco, their Basset Hound. 

Hello everyone! My name is Adrienne Dear. You may also know my husband, Chad Dear. We have lived in Brandon for over twenty years. We have had kids in the Brandon Bands since 2015. Both of our sons, Camden (saxophone) and Ethan (percussionist and trumpet) have been in the band and chose to pursue band membership following high school. Our daughter, Ainsley, is a freshman and plays the flute. While currently I am Secretary, I have helped with band uniforms, props, hospitality, banquet preparations, concessions, fundraising and the food committee. Chad has spent most of his time with band props for both marching and indoor seasons. We hope to see you through the year!
