The above, MD Def Force Band, is considered "Trumpet Day" for Bel Air Middle and High School students, and happens every year at this time and is Free as stated. A lot of students get extra credit for attending. Wayne Bergeron has been a special guest the past two years I've attended. Unfortunately wasn't able to make it today 10/20/12. Look for it next year.....definitely a real treat.
