GHHS CONCERT BAND PERFORMS AT OMEAIn case you missed it, our GHHS Concert Band had a huge achievement last week, performing at OMEA as a large group for the first time in a very, very long time. Dr. Ishbah Cox, Director of Wind Ensembles at Capital University, came to GHHS to help our students prepare during the week leading up to OMEA, and the students also gave an "open rehearsal" performance for family and friends last Tuesday night in the GHHS auditorium.
And then the big day came. Our students headed up to Westerville South HS on Friday March 15, and by all accounts, knocked everyone's socks off! They received the highest and second highest ratings available on the three songs they performed, and in the words of Mrs. Olis, they "paved the way for amazing things for this program!" Congratulations to our young musicians - we are all so proud of you!
(Updated March 17, 2024) IT'S TIME FOR CAKE!Folks, when the calendar starts pointing towards spring in Grandview Heights, we all get a hankering for CAKE, and that's because it's almost time for Grandview's oldest continuous fundraising event: the Grandview Heights Band & Orchestra Boosters' BOBCake Bash! (If that name sounds different to you, you are right - and you can click here to read more about why we made this change.)
This year's event - the 75th annual! - will be on April 12, from 6:30 to 9:30pm in the GHHS Gymnasium. You can click here to read more about BOBCake Bash if you are new to the band and orchestra program - but suffice to say it is a fun and much loved community event, as well as a significant fundraising opportunity for the GHBOB. It is an ALL HANDS ON DECK operation, so please clear your calendar and plan to sign up to help. You can click here to visit the signupgenius - please do, today! (Updated March 8, 2024) |
