A high note
Last week, I was lucky enough to attend spring concerts at two separate high schools.
On May 24, I saw the band and chorus of Washington High School perform under the direction of Dave Dayton and Mark Poole. The music was wonderful and the students did a wonderful job.
The next day, I attended the McGuffey High School spring concert and saw David Haines conduct his last concert at McGuffey High School after 22 years. The school and the community are losing a great conductor and a superb teacher.
Our area has many fine band leaders and they bring beautiful music to life for everyone. Haines will be missed.
