STUDENTS PERFORM AT THE PMEA DISTRICT BAND EVENT
By Abigail Landis
On Saturday, Jan 13, 2024, seven Annville-Cleona students were represented at the District 7 PMEA band concert at Boiling Springs High School. District festivals bring the most musically talented students from varying schools, providing opportunities to enhance their skills.
Students auditioned for the regional band and rehearsed their pieces on Friday. Then, they performed them on Saturday. Dr. Ben Blasko, a graduate of Messiah University, conducted the band and related certain songs to his battle with brain cancer, which emotionally engaged the audience and participants. Between songs, speakers discussed various topics relating to the importance of music concerning cognition and intelligence. Following the performance, two band members, senior Max Liedtka and sophomore Elijah Martin, were selected to perform at the regional concert.
Liedtka said, “This experience was very fun, but also transformative for me as a musician. It was incredible to meet other musicians and develop our skills together. I am grateful for the opportunities I have been able to take part in through PMEA, as they have paved a pathway for me to continue pursuing my passions in music.”
Due to the inclement weather, Annville-Cleona is closed today, and all extracurricular activities are cancelled. Athletic events have been rescheduled. HS midterms have been moved to Monday, Jan. 22 & Tuesday, Jan. 23.
Due to school being closed today, midterm exams will be moved back one day. High School students will not have open campus tomorrow (Wed, Jan. 17). Midterms & the open campus schedule will begin on Thurs, Jan. 18. Thank you.
Mrs. Kveragas' shining stars! Keep up the great work!
Would not be able to tell by the weather outside this coming week... but spring sports are right around the corner. Open gym information for baseball and softball.
Celebrating successes with Mrs. Bahler!
