Official Statement from LVW concerning the 2018 season

5/24/2018

0 Comments

 
First of all, we would like to thank all of the students, staff, parents, and friends of Vanguard who support this wonderful ensemble. Over the course of its 40-year history, LVW has been blessed beyond measure as they continue to carry out their mission to "let our light shine".

In 2010, Lutheran Vanguard of Wisconsin began to march in field show performances while maintaining its reputation and tradition of stellar street performances in parades. God blessed LVW with 8 wonderful seasons of being able to witness through field performances to thousands of people throughout the Midwest.

In preparation for the 2018 summer season, the LVW instructional staff and the LVW Board of Directors had to make some difficult decisions regarding the immediate future of the ensemble. Because the LVW staff and members hail from a very large portion of Eastern Wisconsin - from Kenosha and the greater Milwaukee area, and from Manitowoc to the Fox Cities - the time demands on members, family, and other commitments proved to be too challenging to continue to perform field shows.  In the best interest of all students, staff, and beloved support base, the decision has been made to suspend the field show and move forward with a somewhat shortened season of parade performances only. This decision will allow LVW to continue to provide the highest quality of Christian education, fellowship, and outreach as the band remains one the Midwest's premier summer marching ensembles.
​
Please keep LVW in your prayers in this time of transition. We extend our sincerest thanks to every person who supports this special ensemble!
