This month 13 students from Eaton High School are preparing for the Patriot League Honor Band taking place on January 27, 2014. All of the students that made it have been working hard to learn their music and their notes. They had been working hard before the audition to get thier spot in the Honor Band. In order for these students to make it into Honor Band the students had to perform a solo piece, play many different scales, and sight read music. Doddridge said, “they are usually quite difficult.” The students chosen are Stephanie Brownlee, Haliee Hernandez, Jose Delgado, Natalie Dyer, Mishayla Stephenson, Katie Byrne, Haley Cox, Demi Ball, Megan Radcliff, Zane Cooper, Victor Batrez, and Jayde Contreras. They will be excused from school on January 28 and rehearse all day with a guest clinician. They will be performing that night at the UCCC in Greeley at 7 p.m. Four students (Jose Delgado, Natalie Dyer, Katie Byrne, and Megan Radcliff) will be traveling to UNC to audition for the All State Band on December 4.
