Building A Strong Community Through Music
Twenty years ago, we started with six kids, and a picnic table, with the goal of providing a community based marching music program. Through experiences like the original Saints Drumline Inc, DCA finalist Drum & Bugle Corps, WGI Winter Color Guard, WGI Finalist Indoor Percussion Ensemble, MEPA Jr Flag Line, free lessons & clinics, Athletic Band, the Saints are changing lives.
The drums may be newer, the horns in a different key, and the membership from all around the state, but the experience is rooted in our tradition of performance excellence, mutual respect, with a nod to our HBCU Band style roots. WE NEED YOUR HELP TO CONTINUE CHANGING LIVES THROUGH MUSIC.
