Our 2022 Show

Coven

As dusk settles in the forest, the woods take on a new look of mystery and mystique. What was once familiar is now engulfed with the evening fog that distracts and disorients. Be careful, for hidden in misty shadows they wait, eager to find those who are weak and afraid. Keep your eyes up as those who gather lurk in the woods. Look out, because you are about  to join Penn Manor Marching Unit’s, COVEN!
