Huge congratulations to Graeme Chapman, Brock Walter, and Brett Gerkin!

The three were among 2500 students in the state who auditioned and were selected as top students in the Michigan School Band and Orchestra. They spent two days rehearsing with composer and conductor Dr. William Owens in Grand Rapids and performed at the Michigan Music Conference on Saturday, January 24. What an incredible honor and experience! 🎶✨
