Travel
We compete in multiple local, state, regional, and national level competitions, including NBTA, DMA, and TU-sanctioned competitions. We also perform at local parades and festivals throughout the Mid-Ohio Valley. A majority of our competitions and performances are within 60 minutes of Parkersburg. However, we do travel out of state to compete in competitions in locations such as Columbus, Canton, Pittsburg, and Nationals in South Bend, IN.
Time Commitment
We meet for practice two times a week, on Tuesdays and Fridays. Competitions and parades are typically held on Saturdays but can sometimes be on Sundays. Competition and performance schedules are always posted and given to parents in advance as we know about them . You can find some of our upcoming events on our events page.
