Band students from Rockingham, Ellerbe, Rohanen, and Hamlet Jr Highs spent the day together studying music and performed Thursday evening at Rockingham Jr High. The band was lead by Richmond Senior High director Mike Ward and their concert sounded great for 8th and 9th graders who only had one day to prepare. Their performance included: "Ancient Voices" by Michael Sweeney, "Clouds" by Anne McGinty, and "African Sketches" by James Curnow. The students were fed lunch and dinner courtesy of Pattan Construction and the Richmond County Band Boosters.
