Lutheran Vanguard

It has been a WONDERFUL year! Thanks to all of you for your continued support of your children and the activities of LVW!

We will be having a Farewell Supper at KML following the final parade. There is information on the Director's Updates page for this meal. Unlike the Friends and Family Day, this meal is intended only for LVW Members and Staff, as well as parents and siblings who will be picking up their child at KML. There is a sign up sheet on the Updates page as well for those planning to eat.

We have also posted information for the end of that day, departure times, and so on.

This post has information and daily itineraries for July 1 - 4. It includes links and information for the final three parades for the summer in Menomonee Falls, Cedarburg, and Hartford. You will find line ups for the parades, parade routes, and so on. You can find all of the information on our Director's Updates page.

Check out this post for general information for the last week of the season (packing list, upcoming performances and parades, volunteer form, etc.). This post also includes detailed information for Thursday, June 26 through Monday, June 30. Included is the FVL bus plan for June 26 and a Bus Rider info form. The post has parade and festival information for both Lake Mills and Kenosha, so if you are attending those events you will find all you need to know, including line up locations, parade line up of participants, maps of the parade routes. Go to our Director's Updates for all of the information.

Friends and Family Day is this coming Sunday! It will be very hot and humid. In order to keep our members and guests safe, please see the information posted to the Director's Updates Page.

We LOVE our LVW Groupies! We have a large following of family, relatives, friends, and alumni. Here is some information of which to be aware on parade days, including before the parade begins, while the parade is in progress, and after the parade is over. Check the Director's Updates for the information. Thank you for your understanding!

Hello everyone! Welcome to our food donations signup for Lutheran Vanguard.
It's exciting to begin another season with this terrific group - both the band and the families! Thank you to the many people who have already committed to volunteering their time on the other 2025 Lutheran Vanguard signup. It wouldn't be possible to put on a season without your help! This signup is for anyone who is interested in providing a little more support, or for those who might have been unable to volunteer their time but would still like to support our band in other ways. Whatever your situation, thank you for the help you've provided!

LVW Food Service Donations

We know that not every LVW Member can be present for every rehearsal and performance. Many do have perfect attendance, however! That is always the goal. For LVW Members who will be missing any day (or days) for valid reasons (Family vacation, weddings, driver's education class, camp counselor training, etc), please fill out this form so that the LVW Staff has an accurate count of who will be missing. This is important for our food service as well. Thank you for taking care of this!

LVW Members who have summer jobs are expected to inform their place of employment of the LVW Schedule ASAP to avoid being scheduled for work on an LVW day.

Attention LVW Family and Friends - the link for summer volunteers is now open. You will find the information, as well as the link to the SignUp form, on our Volunteer page. We need LOTS of volunteers for the summer. No experience is necessary - just a willingness to learn from our returning volunteers. Spots are open from June 10 through June 22. Spots for the last two weeks of the season will be available in the near future.

As promised at the March camp, your DMs have put together a practice schedule. For all of the information, and for the Google Classroom Code, go to our Member Students page.
