WHO WE ARE

Since 2015, Flotilla 10-03 has proudly represented District 11 Southern Region of the US Coast Guard Auxiliary. Our Flotilla formed in 2015 and we operate year-round and rehearse most Tuesday evenings at St. Marks Episcopal Church in Mesa, Arizona. All of the musicians in our band are community members just like you! We all enjoy performing music and serving our country. Our full band performs classic military repertoire including the famous marches of John Philip Sousa and other well-loved American patriotic tunes. We also perform in smaller chamber ensembles (i.e. brass ensemble, ceremonial buglers).

Contact our Event Coordinator and Public Affairs Officer, Al Yarusso to find out how to book the band for your next military or veteran event: arizonabandflotilla@gmail.com
