On the evening of Saturday, December 3, 2011; East Liverpool (Ohio) had the honor of having the Oak Glen High School Marching Band participate in their Christmas Parade. Oak Glen as well as East Liverpool High School Marching Band, Weirton High School Marching Band, Beaver Local High School Marching Band, and the East Liverpool Area Alumni Band joined one another in the festivities. Line up for the parade was at 4:00p.m., and started a little after 5:00p.m.. Oak Glen did wonderful. People usually pass judgment on the band’s size before they even play. I can honestly state that from my observation, Oak Glen High School Marching Band sounded much louder (or equal in volume) than (to) the other participating bands. After the parade, I overheard many East Liverpoolites talking to one another about how far the OGHS marching band has come, and how well rounded they sounded and played.
Good Job Guys!!!
