The Trump-Vance Inaugural Committee has selected the Stewarts Creek High School Band to perform in the 60th U.S. Presidential Inaugural Parade in Washington, D.C., on Jan. 20. This prestigious honor highlights the band’s commitment to musical excellence.
Representing the Town of Smyrna, Rutherford County Schools and the State of Tennessee, the Stewarts Creek High School Band will join select groups from across the nation for this historic occasion.
“This invitation is a true testament to the hard work, passion and dedication of our students,” said Stewarts Creek High School Principal Clark Harrell. “We’re thrilled to showcase our students at such a prominent national performance and grateful for the ongoing support from the school and community.”
The Stewarts Creek High School Band is no stranger to civic and community events. In 2016, the band traveled to Honolulu, Hawaii, to perform at an event commemorating the 75th anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor. In 2018, the Stewarts Creek High School Band had the honor of performing at the dedication ceremony of the Capt. Jeff Kuss USMC Memorial, paying tribute to Marine Captain Jeff Kuss, Blue Angel No. 6, who lost his life in Smyrna during training for the Great Tennessee Airshow in 2016.
To meet the travel and performance costs associated with this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, the band has launched a fundraising campaign and is seeking financial and in-kind donations from members of the community, alumni and businesses.
