Their concerts included Harvest Test, the Winter Concert in December, and the Spring Concert in May.

This year Bangor High changed its Choir in many ways. They started out by enlarging themselves from 48 to 61. They also participated in the first annual Choir Clinic in which they sang with other choirs. The clinic obviously payed off since they took a second in class “A Bangor Highs jazz choir “The Moonlighters” also had a busy year. This year, with 7 new members, they participated in the Harvestfest, Winter Concert, Spring Concert, and were part of a telethon. With all of this practice it’s not surprising they went to State. 71 “If you can react way to whining losing, thafs a biy accompli That quality is important because it stays with you the rest o your life..”_________ Chris Euert Lloyd C Gundersen Clinic, Ltd.
