High School Concert Participated in a Music in the Parks Festival
Photo of students holding a trophyOn May 3rd, our High School Concert Band traveled to Palmyra, Pennsylvania to participate in a Music in the Parks Festival. They performed two pieces of music and received an adjudication from two judges. The compositions performed included the Second Suite for Band by Gustav Holst, and In All Its Glory by James Swearingen. Despite missing a few key members, the group played very well, and received a rating of “Excellent” and a First Place trophy. After their performance in Palmyra, the group had some free time at Hershey Park. Our visit took place on “History Day”, so there were also fun facts all over the park about the rides and about Milton Hershey and the development of his company and the park! A good time was had by all… Congratulations, GCS Band!
