Yankee Dutchmen Marching Band

09/21/2026

We had a fantastic time in the Jefferson Gemuetlichkeit Parade yesterday! The Yankee Dutchmen even had a little spot light on the news last night!

This ends our Summer parade schedule for this year. We’ll be back after Thanksgiving for a few Holiday parades! We’ll see you in a few months!

A brand new parade for our group! The Yankee Dutchmen will be marching in the Kendall Parade this Sunday, September 6th at Noon. It's farther than we usually travel but we are looking forward to this exciting day! If you are in the Central WI area, come on over to see us! We'll be playing afterwards in the b**r tent at the park as well.

Another great local musician passed away two weeks ago. Ellward was a part time trombone member of our band from the 80s through the early 2010s. May he rest in peace. ❤️
