The popular and much sought musical group will exhibit their parade routines and thrilling band numbers in the local line of march which will get underway at 6:30 p.m. on Saturday, August 25. Band members vote on requests for appearances themselves and their practice time and parade competitions are apart and extra from school and duty hours. The fine group appeared in last year's parade and immediately stamped themselves as Benicia favorites."Collection
