The OG Band in the Chester Christmas Parade
OG band played well in the sunshine of the Chester Christmas parade on Saturday!
They have one more parade next week in New Cumberland where they will accompany the choir at the end for a Christmas carol sing-along before treats and hot chocolate will be served.
On Friday, December 6, several Oak Glen Students traveled to Charleston to compete through audition against several hundred other high school musicians in West Virginia. They had to play in front of a judge to earn scores in several different categories. Scores will be reported next week. Students remain hopeful to earn a spot in the WV All State Band for 2025.
The students were Emily Allen, Kaylee Culbreth, Adyson Parsons, Madelyn Thompson, Alex Marchese and Lili Hughes.
Good Luck!

If you've got the hustle, we want to hear your plan!
