Marching with the Virginians
A blog written by Marching Virginians to capture the true Spirit of Tech
For the first time in two years, The Marching Virginians are reunited and are gearing up for the season ahead! In this blog post, Breanna reflects on the different activities of the MV Band Camp and how the MVs welcome rookie marchers into their ranks. Be sure to tune in, as this season is looking to be one of the best one yet!
During our early years of schooling, many of us participated in a kind of ‘Flat Stanley’ where students took their decorated print-out with them on their adventures around the United States or across the world! This summer, Ashlyn created a fun way to connect the MVs together while also honoring Stack’s memory: Introducing ‘Flat Stack’. Check it out!
In an incredibly in-depth interview, Breanna asks rising sophomores to depict their experience of adjusting to both the rigor of college and the Marching Virginians during the COVID-19 pandemic. You don't want to miss this interview, especially as they give valuable advice to new prospective MVs. Don't forget to register for band camp by July 12th!
In a never before seen interview, Ashlyn asks five fun questions from our directors, including some pictures of their quirkiest moments together these past seasons. Enjoy a slice of the MV lyfe in this post with our two favorite musicians, and don’t forget to register for the 2021-2022 MV band camp!
In this post, Callie highlights how together we can make a difference as a band and involve the support of our alumni, friends and family in supporting our futures as musicians and marchers. So, get ready MVs, Giving Day starts tomorrow at 12 p.m. EST and will run 24 hours ending on Thursday, February 25th at 12 p.m. EST.
While most people find their “band family” during their freshman year band camp, Kelly Guthrie was born into hers. With two MV parents, Kelly always knew she wanted to join the MVs. However, when she got to Virginia Tech, not everything went as planned… Read her story in the latest addition to the series “The Experience.”
