Yakima Valley Community Band

On Wednesday evenings, in the summer, the Yakima Valley Community Band under the direction of Roger Finch delivers free concerts in parks around the valley. On July 15, the concert was held at Randall Park.
At the end of every performance the band plays God Bless America followed by a salute to the armed forces. People in the audience who served in the armed forces stand when their particular theme song is played. Following the salute to the armed forces, everyone stands for the Star Spangled Banner.
