Welcome to Powhatan Bands

A New Look for 2010

Here are a couple of impromptu shots of the kids on the day they tried out their new uniforms. Lots of folks have put in lots of time to raise the funds for the new unis. We're showing them off for the first time at the Labor Day Parade on Monday, but unfortunately the shako hats won't make it here until later next week. We'll be wearing berets for the parade.

Enjoy the Labor Day weekend!
