Spectrum Band 19th-22nd

11/17/2018

 
HI everyone!

It is parade week and I couldn't be more excited! It was one year ago this week, where I had my first shot at leading Victoria's #1 Marching Band through the inner harbour and past 65,000+ people! We have been working hard... learning to move as one and play as one this past week and the band is going to be great! I look forward to seeing the 9's rise to the opportunity and our returning students revel in the support and love from our community. Kudos to ALL of our returning students as they have shown great leadership, mentorship and support to our newest members.

This is Canada's largest winter parade and we are very proud to be continuing our long tradition of serving our community with music.

The schedule this week reflects the extra rehearsals needed to prepare for our 1st parade of the season.
