Celina Chamber Choir earns I (Superior) Rating at OMEA State Large Group Contest

I am very proud to announce that yesterday the chamber choir earned a Superior rating in Class B at OMEA State Large Group Contest, held at Van Buren High School. This rating was the result of much hard focused work on their stage performance and sight-reading. They managed to do this even after most of them were up late attending prom and after prom activities the night before! Thank you, Chamber Choir, and also to Mr. Dave VanTilburg, our wonderful accompanist, for your hard work and dedication!

Thanks also go to the students who were able to provide music for the high school Art Show this afternoon. Kirsten Fuelling, Hannah Jones, Greg Hirt, Zoe Kriegel, Brittany Bullock, and Alex Anderson (as well as Mrs. Kalcec, Mr. VanTilburg, and myself) shared their solo talents and were much appreciated by Mrs. Place and the art show goers! What a big weekend this was!
