About

Rockin Florida's Heartland Since 1984

Formed in 1984 by senior Harry Havery and guidance counselor Rodney Hollinger, California Toe Jam is one of the Heartland's most enduring and endearing bands.  

Where did ya get that name?

Homecoming week was coming up at Sebring High School.  The cheer leading sponsor asked Harry Havery, a senior, and Rodney Hollinger, the guidance counselor, to put together a band for the Homecoming rally, "THUNDER". There was no desire to name the band, but the cheer leading sponsor insisted on having a band name on the posters.  The guys in the band- Havery, Hollinger, plus students Richie Shepard, Jay Grubb  and Mike McElfresh and band directo Roger Nubern just couldn't come up with anything good.  Try as they might.  Having given up on a name, they started into what had become a ritual during their practice sessions:  teasing Roger about his Flip Flop-clad feet and his Toe Jam. and someone yelled, "THAT'S IT!!  TOE JAM"!  Since the theme for Homecoming that year was "Back to the Beach", they stuck "California" in front. And I guess, well, the name stuck with us!
