What an INCREDIBLE day! East Ridge, Woodbury, and Park all put on a great show, were enjoying themselves at the food trucks and represented their schools with class and musicality! We'll share more photos soon! But first, a GIANT thank you to all the parents, families, and community who came out today to support their students, donated to our combined fund, and enjoyed the show! Standing room only! Thank you to all of the volunteers who worked so hard: who cleaned the bleachers, served concessions, organized food trucks, helped with uniforms, and took care of all of the students in the heat. We couldn't put on this show without you! Band parents are in a class by themselves. And thank you to the amazing staff who have supported our students throughout the marching season and helped to craft this show that we are all so proud of. What an amazing end to another incredible season!!
