Louisburg High School Marching Wildcat Band Returns from Washington, D.C.


The Louisburg High School Marching Wildcat Band represented Kansas in the 2006 National Independence Day Parade in our Nation’s Capital. While in DC, the band performed at the U.S. Navy Memorial, performed the National Anthem at the Washington Nationals’ baseball game, and laid a wreath and performed at the gravesite of John Philip Sousa. The great-great nephew of John Philip Sousa made a surprise visit to this tribute performance. He showed up with a plastic tube that contained one of Sousa’s batons and let band director, John Cisetti, conduct Taps with it!!
