The Ravens do a good job supporting this group. This is not and never was intended to be a professional group. They have very nice uniforms, large marching wind instruments, percussion equiptment, music, accessories for hundreds of members. They also have staff members and somewhere in my memory I remember some large vehicles. It is commendable that an organization would sponsor a volunteer (emphasis on "volunteer") musical organization such as this. In return, these adults have a musical and social outlet beyond HS and college to be a part of for life. From my personal experience, the members seem to be highly appreciative and proud of this experience.

Hey, I'm not saying that the Ravens organization are saints or anything. But being the conductor of a community band, I appreciate the Ravens having and supporting such a group.

Try to remember "not getting paid" doesn't mean "not being supported."
