As the end of the season draws near and showtime approaches, the NHS drumline puts in countless hours of work perfecting their routine. Consisting of eleven members, the drumline is one of two parts of the Noblesville Indoor Percussion Ensemble, directed by teacher Zach Keim.

Such work often causes a mental and physical strain on the young performers, who put on a show so seamless it appears professional.
