Thanks to Saint Xavier University for hosting ILMEA large group for the HCHS Jazz Band and Jazz Ensemble. The student performances and guest clinics were amazing. To add some excitement, a few of us pushed a stalled car out of the way to kick things off.

We packed a lot into 4 days: a clinic at Rutgers, a performance at The Intrepid, seeing The Outsiders, a meet and greet with Broadway stars, and of course, the Veteran’s Day Parade right up 5th Avenue! The kids did great thanks to some amazing chaperones!
