Youngsville Marching Eagles Honors America’s War Veterans

Wreath Laying at Sousa's Gravesite in Congressional Cemetery

I was very pleased with everything - transportation, hotel, meals & tour escorts. The parade was great! Just the right length. And the audience was awesome! We loved their response to our “Jive” section in our cadence where we did fancy foot and bodywork. The organization in the assembly area was very much appreciated!

My personal highlight was the parade. I got teary eyed as we marched past the Washington Monument. The kids also enjoyed the parade and the audience response. They enjoyed all the sights and the Smithsonian Museums. They really enjoyed watching the precision of the changing of the guard at the Tomb of the unknown Soldier in Arlington.

It was a wonderful band trip and I will gladly serve as a reference for Music Celebrations if any bands are considering this experience.
