Vern Contra Posted September 9, 2016 Author Share Posted September 9, 2016 The Grey Knights are an all age Drum and Bugle Corps based in Johnsonburg, PA. We have a rich tradition of Drum & Bugle Corps history dating back to 1936 with an active Drum Corps in every decade. We play “G” Bugles and have members come from as far away as Pittsburgh, Jamestown, Dubois, Kane, and most other local cities. The Grey Knights will hold an open house on October 30th and again on November 13th, 2016 We practice twice per month after the Christmas holidays, through June, leading up to parade season. We perform in parades and concerts each summer and enjoy great success in entertaining the crowds at these performances. The Johnsonburg Community Center provides the practice facility at the corner of Market and Bridge Streets. The Grey Knights are currently looking for new members in Brass, (Trumpet/Coronet, French Horn, Trombone, Baritone and Tuba), Percussion, Color Guard and A-Guard. We have a large portion of membership from local schools in the area. We are interested in passing our Drum Corps tradition on to a younger Generation! Come and join the fun!
