Here’s talented composer Ron DeGrandis with his sister Trish Doll, the driving force behind initiating the development, solicitations, and promotional Marketing-PR efforts for the Pennsylvania March Bill on September 30, 2018.
Trish's extensive campaign included Radio and TV interviews, feature stories, and coordination of audience and dignitary attendance for the PA March's premiere by the Allentown Marine Band. Her program generated official Proclamations from various dignitaries – including the announcement of ‘Ron DeGrandis Day’ by the Allentown Mayor.
Dream to a reality -- After many years of unwavering commitment and tenacity, the Pennsylvania March gained its first consideration as Senate Bill 113 on Jan. 25, 2021. Following the closure of the 2021-2022 Senate Session, Trish's relentless efforts successfully secured several new sponsors in Congress, leading to the reinstatement of the PA March as House Bill 1923 on December 18, 2023.
