The school’s Director of Music, Kerrie Lynn Boys conducted all performances from the Senior Band, Brass Ensemble to the musical stylings of the Vocal Class.

Principal Melissa McEwan told the crowd before the performance they were in for a “special treat”.

“The talent of the youth here at Saugeen District is exemplary, I want to take a moment to brag,” McEwan said while asking if the audience knew how well the Senior Concert Band did at a recent competition. “How many of you knew that our Senior Concert Band was the recipient of Gold at MusicFest? What an accomplishment and a reason to celebrate.”

McEwan went on to thank Boys for her “tireless efforts” and “commitment to her students” and also took the opportunity to thank parents and families for their support as well.
