The Corps has been a staple in the community for over 80 years.
Participation with the Corps provides students with uniforms, instruction
and community service opportunities; in addition to being able to earn
valuable dollars toward their future educations.
The Corps' performance season runs typically from mid-March through
the end of October. The performance season consists of primarily
firemen's parades throughout the tri-state area, along with concerts,
competitions and special events. The Corps rehearses from September
to May.
The root of our musical repertoire is in traditional martial music
selections like the Billboard March, Under the Double Eagle and Semper
Fidelis. In addition, we have also added some popular arrangements like
the theme from Phantom of the Opera, Raiders of the Lost Ark and
Patton. We also blend in some more modern selections with a brassy
Latin flair like Malaguena, Perro Caliente, and La Pantera.
