It was a huge honor for the Herriman High School Choir, Orchestra, and Tour Concert Band. They were invited to perform recently at the National Vietnam Veterans Day Parade in Honolulu, Hawaii. The students, along with their music directors, represented Jordan School District and all of the State of Utah with amazing performances, showing their pride and tremendous talents.
The National Vietnam Veterans Day Parade takes place to pay tribute to those who served our nation for the cause of freedom and liberty. Honolulu and its historic Waikiki beach served as a perfect host and backdrop for the important commemoration and welcome home for veterans.
Bands not only marched in the parade, but they were an integral part of the Official Public Ceremony, performing as part of the mass band led by the Marine Forces Pacific Band.
Congratulations to Herriman High School for honoring veterans in such a meaningful way and giving veterans musical memories to last a lifetime.
