Deep River Junior Ancients at DRAM 2018

Myrna and I were blessed to be able to attend the 2018 Deep River Ancient Muster (DRAM) in Deep River, Connecticut. This muster is considered to be the oldest and largest gathering of fife and drum participants and enthusiasts in the world and has been referred to as "The Granddaddy of All Musters." The Muster is always held on the 3rd Saturday in July.

The muster starts off with a parade (including the various participating fife and drum corps). This is followed by a presentation by each of the participating units at Devitt's Field (the end point of the parade).

The first of the post-parade presentations was by the local Deep River Junior Ancients. To view their presentation, please watch:
