This is your ‘Save the date’ card. The 7-12 Christmas concert is Monday, December 12, 7:30 p.m. at Glasco. The Junior High and High School choirs will perform. The High School choir had a real work-out on Nov. 21 hosting the Northern Plains League mass choir. The songs sounded great by the end of the day.

The SC Warrior Band has a busy December. Our countdown to Christmas break --- 1 concert and 2 pep bands. The concert program includes a variety of styles. The High School members warm-up the audience with a 4-part arrangement of “Angels We Have Heard on High” and get you in the spirit. At football homecoming, part of the band played part of “Colors of the Wind” from Pocahontas. The football players and cheerleaders felt left out, so the complete band is playing the complete version. “Russian Choral and Overture” by Tchaikovsky has challenged even the most accomplished player as it changes keys 7 times. Frustrating, but what a feeling of accomplishment when we get it right. We leave you in the holiday mood with “A Crazy Mixed-Up Christmas”.

See you at the concert. See you at the concert.
