Music students from four schools performed for a large crowd
in the Wilson C. Riles Multipurpose Room Wednesday evening, March 13. Band students from Dudley, North Country, and
Oak Hill Elementary Schools
displayed their talents, along with the band students from Wilson Riles. An audience of over 150 watched with pride as
the young musicians demonstrated what they have learned. Music teacher Dave Myers works with students
at Riles, Oak Hill, and
Dudley, and he orchestrated
the evening and led the various groups in playing for over an hour. Anne Merdinger runs the music program at
North Country, but was unable to attend the show. Parents and family members gave a standing
ovation at the close of the performance, and Mr. Myers commented on how much he
enjoyed the evening, “I’ve known some of these kids for several years, and I’m
impressed with how well they play. This
evening was truly fun!” Mr. Myers will
put on a “Husky Café” presentation in a few weeks, allowing the Riles students
to perform. Riles will also host a
spring music performance later in the year.
