1) There is a concert Thursday March 13 for Orchestra (Period 6) and String Ensemble (Period 5) members. We will be closing up the Walker Middle School concert. All the area's fifth grade students will be playing on the concert as well. CALL TIME IS 6:15 p.m .DRESSED AND READY TO GO. We'll briefly tune and maybe run through our piece... then, it's concert time. I will be asking many of the members of our group to help tune and watch over the younger kids - we will have more than 200 string students all together!
Everyone else is welcome to attend - come show your support for the West Area String program.
