The Music Department will be presenting its annual Christmas Concert on Wednesday, December 12th. The Junior Band, Senior Band, Jazz Band and Chamber Choir will give one presentation on Wednesday afternoon for our elementary students, as well as for special guests from Holy Cross Elementary, and PROBUS - the Retired Business Professionals from our community. The musicians will then present a second concert, open to family, friends, and all community members, at 7:00pm Wednesday evening. A bakesale will provide refreshments, and donations at the door will be welcome, as we raise money for new instruments and equipment. We hope you will come and celebrate the Christmas Season with us, through the Joy of Music.
