Band and Choirathon October 2015

 BAND AND CHOIRATHON 2015  A SUCCESS!! 

On Friday, October 23, 2015  members from our Concert Band, Jazz Ensemble and Choir came together to participate in our semi-annual Band and Choirathon. The purpose of this event was threefold: 1) to strengthen bonds between musicians  2) to improve performance level and 3) to raise funds for our future band and choir trip in 2017.  I am pleased to say that all three of these goals were accomplished.  I have worked with several ensembles over the years and while small in number, this group was easily the most focused and dedicated.  Their determination made this marathon  rehearsal ( minus supper time) go by quickly.   Congratulations to our band and choir members and a huge thank you to all involved including Administration, Custodians,  Sonia Jeannotte,  Cathy Krebs-Cholubko  for their assistance with this event.  A final thank you to main floor staff in the Religion/Social Science Wing and Art Wing that so generously gave us their rooms to use..We really appreciated it!
PS  Sorry no pics!  I was on the go and it completely slipped my mind...next time for sure! :)
