Students from three District 62 Middle Schools - Chippewa, Algonquin and Iroquois - were guests of the Maine West Marching Band tonight at the annual D62/MW Marching Band Night. High School band students led District 62 students in sectional rehearsals, and then both groups combined for a dress rehearsal.
In tonight's concert, the Marching Warriors performed their show, Mythos, for an audience of largely middle school students and their parents, and the legendary Warrior Drum Line performed their standard hits. The District 62 and Maine West students then combined forces performing together on Blinding Lights by the Weeknd and, of course, the Maine West Fight Song!
Thanks to Mr. Bernie Gerstmayr, Maine West Band Director, and the three District 62 Middle School Band Directors - Brian Gavilan (Chippewa), Sarah Todd (Iroquois) and Missy Legutki (Algonquin) - for all of your work to make tonight's wonderful collaboration happen.
We are looking forward to welcoming the #futurewarriors to Maine West!
Thanks to the many parents who volunteered with the Maine West Fine Arts Boosters tonight to help make tonight's event happen! District 62 parents, we welcome you to join our team of volunteers and supporters in the Maine West Fine Arts Boosters!
