Students have been working hard to prepare for our final concert of the school year, “Out of this World.” Our concert day schedule is as follows:
| 3:00-3:45 Concert Orchestra | |||
| 3:45-4:30 Seniors (with band) | |||
| 4:30-5:15 Philharmonic (with band) | |||

| 7:00-8:30 Out Of This World concert | |||
| 8:30ish Ice Cream Social honoring the Class of 2022 |
We would greatly appreciate food donations for our hospitality tables, as well as volunteers to assist with dinner, serve at our hospitality tables, or scoop ice cream after the concert. Please check out our SignUpGenius to see how you can help. We are an entirely volunteer-driven organization and we appreciate any help to finish out our year with a (space) bang!

See you at the Car Wash!
Hope to see everyone at the car wash this Saturday, April 23rd at the BP in McLean (1423 Chain Bridge Road – corner of Old Dominion) from 10:00-4:00. Parents can sign up to volunteer or provide food donations here. We welcome everyone to stop by and would especially appreciate volunteers willing to contribute old towels. Students can sign up to volunteer at the car wash on the orchestra white board — shifts will be 9:30-11:30, 11:30-1:30, and 1:30-4:00. Students should wear an orchestra t-shirt or polo, bring their own reusable water bottle, and an old towel.
For those unable to stop by, please consider donating to our car wash fundraiser – no donation is too small!
