High School Jazz Band Performed at Lord's

The MHS jazz band played at Lord's on Saturday afternoon.

  For years, Lord's has generously sold tickets to high school music performances, plays, Trolley Tours and other community events. As a thank you to Lord's for selling music performance tickets all these years, and as a way to cheer up the store’s owners, employees and shoppers, members of the MHS Jazz Band performed in the store over the weekend.     The students also took the opportunity to promote the Jazz Band’s Feb. 2 fundraising event, “Jazzin’ for China,” the last event to which Lord’s is selling tickets to before it closes. Individual tickets to the Feb. 2 event are $50. A $5 discount is available per ticket when purchased as a table. Funds raised will primarily provide financial aid, and cover music-related expenses on the trip. …
