    Don Pentleton leads the band .
    He grew up in Watertown and still a resident .
    After graduating from Watertown High School -Don started at 18 years old playing drums with all the big bands.

    Hal McIntyre took over the Glen Miller band (who Don played with ) and they have kept his name.
    Let’s give Don -our hometown celebrity -a huge welcome!
