Ironwood -November 7, 2009 The Michigan Tech
Superior Wind Symphony came to town yesterday
for a Friday Evening performance at the
Historic Ironwood Theatre.
The performance was last evening, however
we caught up with the Orchestra at rehearsal
early Friday afternoon.
The program included music performed with
band students from Luther L. Wright HS
augmenting the Huskies on stage.
The Orchestra was conducted by Nicholas
Enz.
The rehearsal went very well an indicator
that the evening performance would be
especially good.

From: Ken Jacobson, Ironwood |
I was invited to an
"Honoring the Veterans" service and dinner
at the Lighthouse Faith Center on Wednesday
November 11, 2009 at 6 pm. and I was asked
to invite any other veterans I may know, so
I'm passing this to you who are veterans or
know veterans.
I was told there will be a brief service
honoring the veterans followed by an
informal spaghetti dinner. So please pass
this to other area vets who may be on your
contact list.
Hope to see you there. |
