THIS IS HAPPENING... On Friday March 6th, 2015, the RHS Symphonic and Concert Bands will travel to Ellensburg, WA for the Central Washington University Wind Ensemble Festival! We are proud to be invited to this prestigious festival. Our Symphonic Band will perform and be adjudicated, and all members are needed. Concert Band students will also attend to observe and learn. Our students will also listen to other excellent high school bands perform. This trip is really fun!

Information sheets and permission forms are going home with students later this week, and will be available on the RHS Band website.
