BAND WOWS CROWD AT WET FOURTH OF JULY
Once again, the GMHS Marching Band entertained the crowds at the annual Groveport
Fourth of July parade. Despite the rain, parade planners decided to go on with the parade. "Rain or shine," said
the man in charge.
The new band bus followed the band in the parade and many positive comments were
heard throughout the crowd.
Thanks to the parents who walked with the band and drove the bus. You guys
are awesome.
Next up: Pre-band camp Monday through Thursday
July 14 - 17. We'll be rehearsing music every evening and hope to be well on our
way with the musical presentation of our competition show and stand music.
