Boy Scout Troop 51 Band
In the 1920’s, a Kalamazoo Scouter by the name of Major Miller came to Vicksburg to instruct a fife and drum bugle corp in Troop 51 (which became Troop 251 later). In the latter part of the 20’s, the group evolved into a Boy Scout Band under the direction of Chas Brocato (also of Kalamazoo). Being the only band in the community, the unit performed in multiple events held in Vicksburg during the summer.
