Thank you all so much for what truly was a wonderful year! We asked a lot of these students, and they delivered in a big way. Their talents combined with their work ethic allowed us to have a very successful year. None of this would have been possible without your support, both financially and emotionally. On behalf of myself, Mr. Meyer, and High School Director Mr. Gumina, thank you so, so much for all that you do to help make our band program a success!
Memorial Day Thanks
I usually have a microphone in my hands on concert night to express my gratitude, but since I did not have one yesterday- here it goes:
I am so proud of those students who voluntarily performed for their community on their day off of school. They did a wonderful job, and their performance meant a ton to a lot of people in the community. We just had our spring concert 12 days earlier, which means that they learned all of those songs in one week. It has definitely been a busy year, but I couldn't be prouder of all of these students for the efforts they have given us this year.
