The Grant High School drumline was selected to represent California in next year’s National Independence Day parade in Washington, D.C.

House Rep. Doris Matsui nominated the young musicians.

But the drummers aren’t without a significant hurdle – they must raise $100,000 to fly 50 people and their instruments to D.C., and pay for hotel and uniform costs.
