Indoor Drumline FLIES HIGH IN Hot Springs

The Union H.S. Indoor Drumline’s 2025 competitive season is off to a great start, including a 1st Place Finish at the WGPO Circuit event held at Broken Arrow HS in February, as well as being crowned Class Champion of the recent WGI Hot Springs (AR) Regional event. The ensemble’s competitive season culminates at the WGI World Championship, held in Dayton, Ohio in mid-April. The Union Indoor Drumline earned the World Championship Silver Medal at its most recent WGI participation in 2023, and aims to continue its momentum in 2025 with a brilliant program entitled “Learning to Fly”.
