Waverly Spaghetti Dinner Pictures!

Check out our fun at the Spaghetti Dinner we held in February!  You can find them on our Facebook Page or on our Waverly Orchestra Website.

Thank you String Cheese! We had a great time!

Last Saturday, about 40 of our students from all grade levels in our orchestra learned fiddle tunes, arranged a tune, learned to improvise, and got to hear great music on amazing instruments played by the craziest-out-of-control-positive-and-inspirational string band STRING CHEESE!  If you missed it, you won't ever want to miss it again!  These videos are from our "informance"  and just give you a taste of what we did.  If you want to hear what String Cheese is all about, check them out on www.stringcheesemusic.com.  

Waverly Orchestras Perform for the Chamber of Commerce

Members of the Waverly High School orchestra performed Thursday in front of 750 business men and women at the Lansing Chamber of Commerce awards dinner. Students also volunteered at coat check. It was wonderful to represent our school in front of some of Lansing's finest (Mayor Benero and Tom Izzo and family!!!!) and we were also given a generous gift of $1000 from our sponsors, LAFCU.
