What we do
The Yankee Volunteers Fife & Drum Corps of Seekonk, MA is a replica of an ancient fife & drum corps from the 18th & 19th centuries. The Corps is available to perform in a variety of different capacities from marching in parades to commemorate special events to performing in a small group for a special event. The Corps also includes a musket line with fully-functioning muskets that are replicas of the ones used in battle and a color guard that is part of the entourage.
