Summer Band
The Marching Band at DVHS is a voluntary extra-circular activity. Similar to HS Sports.
Summer Band is where it all starts and is required for everyone who wants to participate.
These mini-camps are a lot of fun and extremely important especially for students who are new to the Marching Arts. You do not want to miss these!
If you decide that Marching Band is in your future, please be sure to register for our upcoming season so we can communicate our Summer Band dates.
