Tantara! -Professor Harold Hill he Eagles Marching Band had the honor of performing on the steps of the nation's capitol on Memorial Day, May 30, 1979, as the guests of Con- gressman James Howard. This in- spirational event was the highlight of a three day Spring Tour . The band left South on Monday af- ternoon, May 28, 1979, and arrived at Doswell, Virginia in time to spend the first evening. After a hearty breakfast the next morning, the 100 member band took the 10 minute ride to Kings Do- minion Amusement Park , to par- ticipate in Middletown South Day. The band completed a marching tour of the park which enthused many spectators from the entire nation. Later in the after- noon, the South Jazz Band entertained on the main concourse in front of the one third replica of the Eiffel Tower. Later that evening the band was transported to Washington D.C.
