The District Band Event scheduled for this weekend at Deep Run High School has been cancelled. The high school event will not be rescheduled. We are looking at the possibility of rescheduling the middle school event. We felt that the risk of the impending weather and the safety of the students made this decission necessary. We are sorry for any inconvience that this may have caused and appreciate your patience and understanding. All State elligibility will be based on audition results.
Thank you,
John Sarvay
District 1 Instrumental Representative
