Any student in grades 7 through 12 who has participated in marching, concert and/or jazz band will receive their awards at this time. Refreshments will be served around 8PM with the Senior “pass down” awards following the refreshments.

All Junior and Senior High Concert band members are to report at 6:30 to the band room. Concert uniform (khaki pants, polo shirt) is required.
