Band Beat - 02/06/2009

Homeshow
The Homeshow event last weekend was amazing! However it could not have been possible without the hard work of all the kids and all the supporters like parents, family and local business. ROCORI Band Boosters want to thank all the parents and family members who volunteered at the show. Also to thank the local businesses who are committed to continuous financial support to the ROCORI Band program. The Homeshow would not have been has successful without each and every one of you!
