/in /by

On Thursday, May 21, the PVI Fife & Drum Corps was presented a Certificate of Appreciation by representatives from American Legion Post 2001 in Ashburn for the Corps’ outstanding support of the post’s America 250 presentations. The certificate reads in part: “Your musical accompaniment brought depth, dignity, and powerful movement to our video tribute, ‘250 Years of Service, Sacrifice, and the American Story.’ Your professionalism, discipline, and commitment to excellence reflect the very values we honor in our nation’s history and strive to carry forward in our community.” #PVIProud #America250

 

America’s 250 Celebration

/in /by
Below is a link to “America’s 250 Celebration” that was created and is narrated by our 2nd Vice Commander Pamela Keegan.  This all started as part of the Virginia Humanities inviting our Post to participate in a program to commemorate America’s 250th.  Our intent was to share a short presentation that reflects on the story of our nation — the sacrifices made, the challenges faced, and the spirit that has carried America forward for nearly two and a half centuries.
As stated earlier, the presentation was created by our own MSgt Pamela Keegan, U.S. Air Force retired, with historical guidance from Colonel John Alger, U.S. Army retired.  The  performance for the Virginia Humanities was brought to life by narrators Ken James and Edward Donifio, accompanied by the Paul VI Catholic High School Ceremonial Drum and Fife Corps. at the River Creek Club.  We hope you enjoy this brief journey through 250 years of the American story.”
