Farmington High Marching Band Serenades Fundraising Raffle Winners
Three local families enjoyed concerts as winners of a fundraising raffle.
Farmington area residents Jackie Mulvihill, Rhonda Anderson and Al and Colleen Pace enjoyed their very own half-time shows Saturday, courtesy of the (FHS) Marching Band.
The 70-piece, award-winning competitive marching band presented selections from their 2012 halftime program, "KA - Cirque Du Soliel" at the homes of the three winners. Additonal selections included the “Falcon Fight Song” and “Let’s Go Blue”.
The fundraising event was sponsored by the Farmington High School Music Patrons, to help with marching band expenses for this season. Winners were selected via a drawing, and the band, dressed in full uniform, traveled from house to house to enterain the winners and their neighboors.
