To the band community & Braves Nation,
Please keep the Minvera Marching Band,Their School District, and the local community in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
From our band family to yours, we offer our sincere condolences for your loss.
Yesterday, the band community lost one of their own in a tragic car accident on Route 30. Please continue to pray for the family of 17-year old senior trumpet player Grant Hale as well as the Minerva Local Schools Bands and Minerva school district. There is something special about being part of a band family and we are all clinging to each other a little tighter today. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family and their community.
