7th Annual Benicia Bay Winter Review
A chance to see a different side of a high school band.
The campus will be a hive of activity Friday, and there will be nothing quiet about it. Thirty-two performing middle- and high school bands from around Northern California will compete as the Benicia High Panther Band hosts the Benicia Bay Winter Review, which showcases winterguards (color guard and drumline groups.) The BMS drumline will be among the competitors.
The community is encouraged to attend this family-friendly event packed with routines by color guards and percussion drumlines in the high school gym, starting around 3:30 p.m. Performances will range from the beauty and playfulness of color guard to the edginess of drumline.
Tickets are $10; students and seniors $5; and children under 6 free. There will be souvenirs, food and beverages, as the boosters proudly serve their "world famous" pulled pork sandwiches.

At about 8:30 p.m., members of the Benicia High School color guard and drumline will perform their routines.
This is not the typical school concert or marching competition, so be prepared for yet another way to appreciate music.
