A great day for our Wind Ensemble on Friday.

We had the opportunity to take some time and rehearse on this stage in the afternoon before taking a short tour of the OSU campus.

The ensemble performed admirably and represented PPS and Cleveland HS with class. They prepared this music in 3 weeks, after performing another set of music on September 27 at our annual Playathon.

The Wind Ensemble has proven to be a fabulous group preparing this first performance in 2 weeks. (4 rehearsals). The OSUMB Spirit and Sound was an absolute blast (literally…we all were issued ear plugs).

Here is a link to a video of the performance.

Cleveland plays first. Gary Riler was given the honor to conduct the Alma mater at the end.

Mark your calendar for our annual summer car wash! We will be in the school parking lot, directly in front of CHS (behind Burgerville) on August 17th from 11:00–3:00 pm.

This is a fun way for new and old band members to connect before school starts.
