The regional competition will be at the Alexandria Lyceum 2 p.m. on April 15. The Lions Music Scholarship Program was established in 1948 to assist and promote cultural and educational opportunities for the musically talented youth of Virginia, in memory of 19th-century musical performer James A. Bland. The program consists of elimination contests starting at club level and continuing through the State Final contest. (Photo: Courtesy Barry Buschow)
