Emmaus Sentinels

The Emmaus Sentinels was a senior drum corps based in Emmaus, Pennsylvania.

History

The corps disbanded in the mid-1970s. In the Fall of 2007, the corps reorganized as the Emmaus Sentinels Alumni Drum and Bugle Corps with many of the original members returning to once again play the songs that made them popular in the 1960s and 70s. The members of the alumni corps meet monthly to practice and intend to march in a parade scheduled in August 2009 to celebrate the Sesquicentennial of the Borough of Emmaus.

This corps was a member of the Red Carpet Association RCA in 1969, 1970, 1971, 1972, 1973, 1974, 1975
