PERCUSSION: ABOUT US

Welcome to the Arcadia Percussion Informational page. Under the direction of Kevin Sherrill, Arcadia's World and Open Class Lines are consistently WGI World Championship Finalists. Throughout first semester, World Lines Front Ensemble and Fall Battery compete alongside marching band at parades and field tournaments. For the Winter Season, Fall Battery is divided into an Open and World Line Battery. Both of these groups compete locally at SCPA (Southern California Percussion Alliance) competitions, as well as nationally at WGI Championships. The culmination of the season's efforts are spent in Dayton, Ohio, where both groups compete for World titles.
