Many thanks to the 40 YHS Band students who turned out on Thursday night to cheer on our Varsity Football team. It was an exciting victory over Mahopac, with awesome support from our enthusiastic student section in the stands!
This morning many of our YHS Band students enjoyed a fun apple picking trip to Wilken’s! Students enjoyed apples, cider and donuts, and priceless Band Family memories. Many thanks to the farm staff and to our band parents who help make this annual tradition possible!
