Featured selections included: "The National Anthem", "Proud Mary", "California Girls", "Rumba Numba", "Washington & Lee Swing", "Swedish Folk Rhapsody", "Billboard March" and "A Day at Disneyland"....a medley highlighting the Mickey Mouse March, Great Outdoors, It's A Small World, You Can Fly, You Can Fly, Best Time of Your Life and Yo ho-A Pirate's Life for Me. The four concerts were well received by audiences. The commitment demonstrated by band members and their families is much appreciated!

Many thanks to Mr. Price and the Friends of CHS Band for sponsoring this summer's band events.
