This year with Kristen being in Walker's Grove Dynamic Choir and Taylor being in the Walker's Grove School band, I have been able to attend several concerts. (Fourth and Fifth graders can be in the choir and Fifth graders can be in the band.) Kristen participated in the school district's first annual "Choir-a-Rama" on April 23. At this concert, all five elementary school choirs and three middle school choir that feed into Plainfield North High School, participated with the high school choirs in a "Choir-a-Rama." It was very nice. Each elementary school sang a song, followed by a song by each of the middle schools. Then the high schools three choirs each sang a song. The concluding song was a combined number done by all the choirs. It was really interesting to hear how the kid's abilities increased from the elementary school to the middle school and then to the high school.
On May 1st, there was a band and choir concert at the school. The band had a concert at a PTA meeting in October, after only being together for about 3 weeks. I was blown away by the difference between October and May. Taylor's favorite song they played was the theme from "Star Wars." I agree, it was a great song.
I hope Kristen and Taylor keep up with the choir and band next year.

the concerts are the BEST HUH?! I love them, especially when they are an hour or longer! No better way to spend your evenings with small, active children!
