Skyler Engelmeyer:
​President​

Hey everyone! My name is Skyler Engelmeyer and I am incredibly proud and excited to be serving as your 2019 Racer Band President! I am a (super) senior double majoring in Music Business and Accounting, and this is my fifth year of Racer Band. I have previously served as a BARC, saxophone section leader, and Vice President. My main instrument is tenor saxophone. I am a 2015 graduate of Castle High School in Newburgh, IN. During the summer, I spend most of my time working as an Assistant Manager of Attractions at Holiday World, where I have worked for the past 7 years. At Murray State, I am very involved on campus. I am a brother of Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia, the men’s music fraternity. Currently, I am serving as the Chairman of Campus Lights, an annual musical that is produced by the brothers of Phi Mu Alpha and sisters of Sigma Alpha Iota, and is one of the longest running student-produced musicals in the country. Racer Band is absolutely my favorite thing about Murray State and I’m sure you’ll love it too! I am so excited that you will be joining us this year and I can’t wait to meet all of you! If you have any questions or concerns at all, feel free to contact me and I will be happy to help! See you soon!
