Under the vast blue sky, vibrant colors converge as one. Amidst the bustling hum of the surroundings, a harmonious rhythm pulses and echoes through the air. Come, let us step into a world alive with brilliant hues and melodic beats, the HCA Drum and Lyre Corps!

Through every clash of resounding cymbals, you can feel their unity. Through every beat of the drum, you can feel their passion. As the lyre sings, you can hear every rythm. And as the majorette dances, you can see their grace. Truly a remarkable performance, as they exhibit their talent and grace.

They truly set the tone at the HCA's 80th HS DAYS.
