The Warren Junior Military Band, originally established in Warren, Ohio, is a youth band which is now composed of students from all over the Youngstown-Warren-Boardman, OH-PA Metropolitan Area. Its members, aged 12 to 21 years old, represent schools from all over the Northeastern Ohio region, and other states and foreign countries.
The band, which functions both as a concert band and a marching band, performs in parades and competitions in locations all over the Midwest, and giving exhibition performances in venues all over the world. The band, nicknamed "The Squires" after their long-time former band director Donald W. "Squire" Hurrelbrink, has performed in every major parade in the United States, and on the White House lawn and for several presidents. Its noble and formal military style, which was preserved over the years by Hurrelbrink, is the trademark of the band to this day.
