Jason joined the band back in 1992. During this time Jason has played first trombone through to bass trombone where he is currently positioned. There have been many highlights playing in the band. Some of these include playing in Aida, and performing with WASO for the 1812 overture in Symphony Under the Stars. There have also been some non-memorable moments – marching down Albany Highway for the opening of a toy store, and performing on an oval in the cold as it started raining…
