Concert to honor vets, first responders
The Greater Monongahela Community Band will present its annual concert to honor veterans and first responders Oct. 19.
This year’s concert will include “Heroes and Warriors,” a composition by Ringgold High School graduate Joel Leach. In addition to other marches, the band will perform Sousa’s “When the Boys Come Sailing Home,” a march he wrote to celebrate the end of World War I.
The free concert will be held at 2 p.m. at the Ringgold Middle School Auditorium on Route 88 in Finleyville. The concert is hosted by Ringgold School District and the Ringgold Middle School Band.
