Congratulations Class of 2009

With the passing of another graduation the EPGHS Bands lose another talented group of seniors. They may go onto to bigger and better adventures, but we know part of them will always be here at El Paso-Gridley whether they like it or not.

This years group graduated 11 hard working band members. During the ceremony they joined the EPGHS Wind Symphony for one last performance of "October". It was a bittersweet moment for some of us, but overall I think many of the seniors were just happy that they don't have to play Pomp and Circumstance ever again! (Except those of course who are planning on playing in college ensembles you just wait...)

I'll leave you with a poem by Joanne Fuchs

Your diploma means a future without boundaries,
A world that's full of energy and fun.
So as you reach for all life has to offer,
Remember that you're second to no one.

Pursue your goals, yet keep your loved ones close,
As you utilize your talent and ambition.
Let your friends and family give you their support,
And you'll master every challenging transition.

And always know you can achieve
The things you really want, if you believe.

Congratulations Band Seniors of 2009

Thanks for making this an outstanding year filled with music and a few trophies!
You will never be forgotten!
