Aadvanvced Limousine - A New Partnership

3/19/2019

 
The band is proud to announce our partnership with Aadvanced Limousines.  Aadvanced is a company based in Franklin Township on Southeastern Ave in Wanamaker.  The band has been marching past their office at every Homecoming Parade each September!

At the recent WGI competition hosted at FC, Aadvanced Limousine provided transportation for the distinguished judges.  When this local company saw the need to provide luxury transportation for the VIPs at this landmark event in our community, it helped to elevate the event to a premier level not only in central Indiana but in the midwest.

The band is giving Aadvanced a Silver Level sponsorship as thanks for the the donation of their services.  Click HERE to find out more about sponsoring the band.

Soon you will have a special occasion in your life.  Check out Aadvanced Limousine and schedule a luxury ride because you deserve it!
