We learned a few weeks ago that Carter was named to the All-Conference Band for the entire Marawood Conference. That's 15 schools! Yesterday he told me there were just 6 from Assumption High School selected. Wow. Very cool.
This evening, on our way up to Spencer High School for the concert, hubby tells me Carter is the only non-senior chosen from AHS. Officially really proud and impressed now.
The Honors Band (and Choir) kids actually spent the whole day up in Spencer (about an hour away) to practice.
Before the concert started, they showed scenes from the day. Carter made the big screen at least twice!
We got there early, which was good, because it filled up quickly. I did manage to get one concert picture of Carter and then I was there to listen.
The approximately 90-member band sounded awesome! Very loud but right in tune. Carter pointed out on the way home that it was kind of crazy to spend all day practicing and have it all over in 18 minutes. It was a quality 18 minutes, though.
And he had a good time.
The Honors Choir sounded excellent, too, with one of our AHS girls getting a solo part in one of the songs. How awesome. Much to be proud of in our little corner of the world.
So glad it just happened that we could be a part of it.
