Sonora, CA – A dazzling event unfolded on March 14, when more than 50 talented members of the Sonora High School Golden Regiment Band hit the magical grounds of Disneyland in Anaheim. This was not just any ordinary school trip; it was a chance for these young musicians to showcase their passion and skills in one of the most iconic entertainment venues in the world!
The band, led by the enthusiastic Yvonne Denton, has a history of excellence. With a solid backing from percussion coach Tobin Denton, who has been a part of the team for an impressive 23 years, these students had the expertise they needed to shine on stage. The array of instruments included everything from flutes and clarinets to saxophones—both alto and tenor—along with trumpets, trombones, tubas, and a range of percussion instruments. It’s clear there’s no shortage of talent in this group!
The trip was made possible through the Disney Imagination Campus program, an initiative designed to enhance student travel, education, and development through arts. But it wasn’t just Disney pulling the strings; the Sonora High School Golden Regiment Band’s boosters, along with the band members’ families and the Denton family, played a pivotal role in making this magical experience come to life. Their teamwork and dedication truly exemplified the spirit of community!

Each note played and every rhythm tapped added to a collective memory that these young musicians will cherish for years to come.
