Hello,

Marty's Goldenaires Senior Drum and Bugle Corps is a Parade and Concert Corps comprised of men from the ages of 16 to 86. We are sponsored by the Post 27 American Legion in Bessemer, Michigan. To our knowledge, we are one of the only remaining Legion-sponsored Drum and Bugle Corps left in the United States. We regularly perform for audiences in Michigan, Wisconsin, and Minnesota from April through Labor Day weekend. Occasionally, we have had the opportunity to perform outside our region. Notable performances include playing a halftime show for the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field, playing inside the Michigan State Capitol for the Michigan House of Representatives, and numerous National Legion Convention parades in Indianapolis, Nashville, Minneapolis, and Milwaukee.

Marty's Goldenaires has been selected to represent the State of Michigan in the 2026 National Memorial Day Parade in Washington D.C. for America's 250th anniversary. It is an honor to be invited to represent our great state. This is an opportunity of a lifetime for our Corps. However, attending this parade comes at a great expense to our organization. Marty's Goldenaires is seeking donations to help mitigate the costs associated with travel and lodging.

Any donation, big or small, is greatly appreciated! Please help Marty's Goldenaires get to Washington D.C.

Thank you!
