Wilde Lake HS Regional String Festival

Katie & Nic were part of a combined strings concert Tuesday night. Kids from Longfellow Elementary, Bryant Woods Elementary, Clemens Crossing Elementary, Harpers Choice Middle, Wilde Lake Middle, and Wilde Lake High schools played a lovely concert. I took video of just the songs my kids were a part of. They played with all the other elementary schools for the first two numbers, the MS students played 2 songs, the HS students played 2 songs, and then everybody played the final number.

Happy Strings!

Warming up beforehand.

Scales in the warm-up room.

Excited to go play!
