Congratulations to those who participated in the Solo and Ensemble Contest! With a high percentage of 1 Ratings, and no ratings less than a 2, we were both pleased with the outcome. We were also pleased with the Kaleidoscope Concert that was held on Thursday night, March 3, which featured selected solos and ensembles that received high ratings. Performances were excellent and there was a nice audience in attendance.
This week [March 14-18] we are asking adults in our school district to test-drive new Fords to raise money for the WNC Performing Arts group. These vehicles can be driven at Carson Ford in Hamilton or at Warsaw High School on Thursday, March 17. If we can get 150 vehicles driven, the group will make $1500+, which will help pay for our Junior High and High School Music trips coming up. Only one driver per household, so please contact relatives, friends, and neighbors (over 18) to help us out!
Speaking of trips, we will be going to St Louis on Thursday, April 14 to the Sheldon Concert Hall and to City Museum. We are in need of adult chaperones for the trip - more information will be coming out soon. In the meantime, check out their websites:

In the meantime - we are making music, getting ready for our final spring concert May 5 - see you then!

Kaleidoscope Recital Concert
Well, we had a very successful solo & ensemble contest last Saturday. We took 31 "I" ratings and 11 "II" ratings with around 50 students participating.
Next on the agenda is our Kaleidoscope Recital Concert tomorrow night, Thursday 3 March 2001 at 7:00 in the NCJHS Gymnasium. We have selected 17 top rated solos and ensembles from the chorus and band to perform for everyone during this Recital Concert. A special treat will be the performance by our two music teachers, Mrs. Wilson and Mr. Dowell, who will conclude the evening with major works on their respective instruments, piano and tuba.
You will want to come early to get a good seat to hear our accomplished student performers. Set time aside now and be sure that you are at the Junior High school for this event.
