The Seneca Valley Marching Band received high marks for a recent performance in Virginia.
The band was named the Grand Champions of the Parade of Nations, which was held in Norfolk, Virginia at the end of April.
The group scored the highest overall score of any ensemble at the festival.
“We are so proud of our students and their hard work,” Varden Armstrong, Seneca Valley Band Director and Performing Arts Coordinator, said. “They have continued the rich tradition of excellence and have left their mark in the legacy of the SV Band program. This is a significant accomplishment and is the direct result of the students’ time, dedication and determination.”
The Parade of Nation is a part of the Norfolk NATO Festival, which celebrated its 72nd year—making it the longest continuous parade in the region.
