The weather threatened this year's Season in Review event too, but it mostly held off long enough for the GHHS Marching Band to show off their pregame show and all four halftime shows to a slightly damp and very appreciative crowd. Check out our photo album below, and click here to see video snippets from almost every show. (Note, we didn't record snippets of the senior show but there is a link to that full performance in the story above.)
Thank you for coming out to support our marching Bobcats - this is always such a great night for our band students! (Updated October 23, 2023) |

Last year, the Boosters decided to make the event more inclusive, and invited the participation of seniors from across all fall sports teams instead of just football, and this year they included the seniors from the Marching Band as well. Marching Band Seniors Lyla Baxter, Steve Chordas, Freddie Keil, Ben Matter, Eryn O'Harra, Colin Parker, Sam Reichert, and Liv Rutter joined more than 40 other Bobcat seniors in lighting the first flames of a bonfire in the pit where the Boosters roast close to 2000 pounds of beef every year to make the fabled "ox sandwiches" for sale during the last day of the Ox Roast. The full GHHS Marching Band also participated in the pep rally that preceded the pit lighting, playing a few songs to pump up the crowd.
GHBOB-er Sandy O'Harra took many of the photos above (and certainly took all of the best ones!) and we are grateful to her for sharing them. We are also grateful to the Bobcat Boosters organization, for including our students! (Update September 10, 2023) |

This past Saturday, a total of ten Larson Middle School students participated in the OMEA solo & ensemble competition at Canal Winchester High School. Not only is this an awesome, huge number of participating students, it's the first time that we have sent any students to the middle school competition in many, many years! Students prepare a short solo and/or ensemble piece, perform it in front of a judge (usually current or retired music educators), and receive a written rating and feedback for their performance. Congratulations to seventh and eighth grade students Laura Alvarez-Link, Hudson Barber, Mira Bondy, Evie DeLong, Bruno Lount, Max McCullough, Charlotte Ritzman, Callie Rutter, Audrey Siefker, and Isla Swisher for embracing this performance and learning opportunity! And kudos and thanks also to Mrs. Olis, Mr. Heath, and Dr. Julie Vish (Mrs. Olis's substitute during her maternity leave), for helping our students prepare for the big day. Mr. Heath and Dr. Vish spent many hours in Canal Winchester guiding our students through the experience as well! Check out some photos from the day down below.
The GH Band Parents Association is proud to have underwritten the students' participation in this activity - and of course that means we are grateful to all of you, as well, for helping to raise the funds that made it all possible. Thank you! (Updated March 26, 2023) |
