BIG RAPIDS MS STUDENTS IN MSBOA HONORS BAND!

The Michigan School Band and Orchestra Association held their annual Middle School
Honors Band Tuesday night (12/8/15), this year at Shelby High School.  For students to
be eligible for admission into the group they must have received a First Division rating at
Solo and Ensemble Festival earlier this year.  The Big Rapids band program was well-
represented by having 28 7th and 8th grade students nominated to perform with the Honors
Band, 26 of which attended – more than any other participating school.  Mr. Mike Eagan
and Mr. Lester Knot were the guest conductors for the Honors Band.
