“Metro Regional”

Saturday, March 19, 2016
VFW Post 4591 located at 513 Veterans Place
Hasbrouck Heights NJ 07604

Participation is open to Brass/Percussion/Keyboard – Individuals/Duets/Trios/Ensembles and also mini corps.
Continuing a feature introduced last year will be the “Non-Competition” category for those that would like to perform without being judged. This will hopefully provide some fun and additional entertainment to the festivities. The doors will open at 12 noon with the show getting underway starting at 1pm. There is a $10 admission fee at the door for all spectators. As in the past, this will be a great day for some good old fashioned drum corps performances and comradery. Bring a friend or family and join in on the fun. Our kitchen and bar will be opened all day.

A special performance by the New York Skyliners Alumni Drum and Bugle will follow the I&E event.
