For almost a century the Harbor Creek Marching Huskies have had a “License to Thrill.” Decades of bands, cadets, twirlers, and color guards have captivated audiences both in Harborcreek and around the region. From championships to road trips, the Huskies have always been sure to excite crowds and represent the ‘Creek with pride. The newest exhibit of the Harborcreek Historical Society celebrates this longstanding tradition.
