Come on out to Datka Stadium TONIGHT at 6:30pm to honor GHS Wall of Fame Inductees!
Freshmen students learn about "getting involved" in co-curricular activities! The goal is to do/try at least one activity while in high school!
The Wall of Sound performed at the Freshman Tailgate and football game. It was their first performance of the year and they did a great job. Their show this year is called After the Storm Clears and tells the story of a big summer thunderstorm, the calming rain shower, and the joy we all feel when the sun comes out. This week, the 6th grade band will join the Wall of Sound for half-time.
You can catch the Wall of Sound and marching bands from Cedarburg, Sussex-Hamilton, Watertown and Anigo at Marching Band Madness on November 17 at Datka Stadium. The gates open at 6:15 with the show starting at 7:00 pm.
