Voices with the sounds of millions! Thats what over 230 students from grades 9-12 sounded like February 7, 2014 at Wayne State College Honor Choir, with 24 schools attendingThe day was jam- packed with rehearsals all day, which was fun but tiring.

There was never a dull moment with Clinician Dr. Elise Hepworth which was always showing us how to fix our mistakes and make our words smooth like honey. The songs of choice were Total Praise, Going Up to Glory, Things That Never Die, and Can You Hear.

There were 8 people that attended WSC. Seniors Tatiayana Harris, Jesika Kramer, and Sarah Alford, Sophomores Blair Preston, Jessie Mutum, Lena Horak, and Sophie Hsu, and lastly Freshmen Amelia Schlichting.

Five students traveled to Stanton to attend the honor choir and honor band. What was special about this honor choir/ honor band is that they had both the honor choir and honor band going on at the same time. Normal honor choirs and honor bands are not held at the same time. The honor bands director was Mr. Roger Thaden.

Reid Preston and Layne Miller were in the band and they did an excellent job. Reid plays the trombone and Layne plays the trumpet and both got first chair. The honors choirs director was Dr. Elise Hepworth. The other three students Matthew Hartley, Cassidy Mentink and Amanda Alford all sang in the choir and they did a wonderful job. The music they sang was a bit tougher than they were used to. “

Those attending honor band and choir were:John Mayo,music instructor, Lane Miller, Matthew Hartley, Amanda Alford, Cassidy Mentink and Reid Preston.
