Concert Awards
In 2003, Deep Run’s concert season band was called Concert Band. In 2004, the band was called Symphonic Band. In 2005, the band was split in to two groups. The first band was called Concert Band and the upper, audition entry band was called Symphonic Band. Since 2006, the concert season band has been divided into the Symphonic Band and the elite, audition entry Wind Ensemble.
