The Roseburg Marching Ensemble will travel to its first of three fall competitions this Saturday September 28th.
The group will be going to the 38th annual Pacific Coast Invitational hosted by Sprague High School in Salem. RHS will compete in the preliminary round at 1:10 p.m. with 14 other marching bands from around the state. They will then be seeded for the finals competition which will begin at 4:00 p.m.
Preparation for the competition began with a two-week band camp in mid-August at Fremont Middle School. It has continued at RHS three times weekly, including performing at halftime for the RHS home football games.
The Saturday event will run from 10:00 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. All-day admission for adults is $15. There are discounts for seniors and students.
