Mr. Akey starts the band playing. Who's that playing? says one parent. They're pretty good really good! These are just some of the reac- tions you might have heard at a Connolly beginning or intermediate band concert, especially the Christ- mas concert, which was a great success. At semester , says Mr. Akey proudly, over half the beginning band was promoted to higher bands. Congratulations to both bands for their outstanding performances. Keep up the good work!
