Tri-County Honor Band

Congratulations to the high school band students who participated in the Tri-County Honor Band at Auburn High School last Thursday. Our students rehearsed all day with students from Auburn, Northwestern, North Mac, Pawnee, Riverton and Waverly. The students had the distinct privilege to work with Professor Barry Houser from the University of Illinois. Under his direction, the students put on a fantastic evening performance. Thank you to Professor Houser for his world class instruction! Congrats to all!
