Brentwood Marching Band Plays Halftime, Competes

Two years ago there were two members in the Brentwood marching band.

Now they have enough to perform at halftime and compete in field marching competitions, which is the goal.

This is the first year for the Pride of Brentwood Eagle Band to compete with other marching bands.

"The kids are working their butts off and really doing a good job," band director Keith Moyer said.

He said Brentwood has done parade marching competitions and winter drum line but never field competitions. He said the band has two seniors and the rest are 8th and 9th-graders.

"The next few years, we’ll get better and better and better," Moyer said.
