New Sousaphones in 2010 (added 9/2/2010)

The Shelby Whippet Band is proud to have 3 new Yamaha sousaphones being used this year. Thanks to the Shelby Board of Education and the Shelby Band Parents, these sousaphones have replaced instruments that have been used for over 45 years. We are still using 2 sousaphones and hope to replace those instruments for the 2011 marching season.
