Vinton Shellsburg's band, came to the ceremonies this morning to help with the events. They marched in the short parade to the river, and band members Megan Jorgensen and Matt Lash played taps at cemeteries and the ceremonies throughout the morning.

Special thanks to Jan Andreesen for snapping these pictures and sending them to Vinton Today!

DH May 31, 2011, 4:37 pm It was nice to see the band involved in the Memorial day activities.It is a shame they told the VIETNAM Veterans parade committee they COULDNT march for us.
JaLK May 31, 2011, 4:52 pm What a great job the band did! I was impressed with their respectful demeanor thoughout the ceremony and the two taps players did a fine job. They all certainly enhanced the event. Thank you to all who particiated.
